Here are all the Brother drivers for both printer and scanner:

<http://support.brother.com/g/b/downloadlist.aspx?c=us&lang=en&prod=mfcj6920dw_us_eu_as&os=127>

I run Slackware 14.1 and have a new Brother laser printer/copy/fax
machine.  I downloaded the .rpm drivers, then changed them to Slack
pkgs with:

rpm2txz -c -S -n -d  

....then installed them as root using pkgtool.  Install the LPR pkg
first.  I can't say about the scanner drivers, as my scanner is a
separate Epson.  Good luck.
