I have a Brother DCP-9010CN (also an USB PSC) connected to my server and can 
typically print and scan over network (using cupsd and saned). So I guess 
you should be able to do the same.

Typically you have to install a driver directly from Brother: 
http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/bsc/public_s/id/linux/en/instruction_scn1.html

You can install this RPM on Gentoo with rmp2targz. I have to use for my PSC 
the driver generation 3 and had to install it afterwards with 
"/usr/local/Brother/sane/setupSaneScan3" for configuration and 
"/usr/bin/brsaneconfig3 -i" adds the driver to the SANE configuration. 
Something similar should exist for your driver.

Hope this helps,
Jörg
