This is what I've used a couple of times:-
https://support.brother.com/g/b/faqend.aspx?c=us_ot&lang=en&prod=hll2300d_us_eu_as&faqid=faq00100556_000
to set up my old laser printer and a new laser printer/scanner that my
girlfriend bought.
However I did try using the drivers search which recognises my HL-
3040CN but not your DCP-J957N. It might be the case that your printer
is old enough for you to be out of luck unless it emulates something
else? My first ever printer was a Brother M-1109 which I used with a
BBC B and it used all the Epson control codes.
