Hi, Scott,
	I can't help with the printer although I do know that Brother
has the drivers for most if not all of their printers, BUT (and it is a
big but) you'll probably get more help if your messages are dated
currently.  My mail client is sorted by date and I danged near lost
your message which is dated 2002.
I hope you can get the help you need and I hope the back-dated message
doesn't hurt your chances.
