These appear to have been released March 2006 - I couldn't see anything newer.

Although I'm a great advocate of Brother laser printers and laser MFCs (although the inkjets don't cut it on print quality for images, IMHO), I do have one problem with my MFC-9880 that really bugs me. There are always two copies of the printer created in the printer list, no matter what I do. This happens automatically and I've tried all manner of things to stop it happening, but I can't get to the bottom of it.

It does work... - Version: 1.0.1, 3/18/2005 10:36AM PST

I just installed this on a new eMac and to begin with had the same problem as everyone else - the Fax-Printer wasn't recognised and didn't appear in Printer Setup. However, then I re-read the installation instructions and noticed that you have to do things in the right order.

You MUST switch off and disconnect the printer first, then restart the Mac (just to be sure) then reconnect the printer and THEN switch the printer on. Now if you run the Printer Setup Utility you will find the Mac has found your Brother printer and all is well. Note, you only have to do this the first time, from now on the printer is always found.

It's worth the effort because this driver package is waaa-haay-hay faster than the standard Brother drivers - especially for any print-job with a lot of images. The prints fall out of the printer literally seconds after you send them, whereas the previous driver would churn endlessly before printing.

Try it again...

(BTW, I'm using this with a Brother MFC-8440)
