Which type of brother printer do you use? And do you use it under Linux?

I'm using a Brother MFC-L3770CDW (Colour laser, with a duplexing scanner). Very reasonable price and super capable device, works fine with linux.
There is a long list of supported scanners directly from Paperless: https://github.com/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx/wiki/Scanner-...

Personally I go with Brother ADS-1700W. I don't use it under any operating system since it is Scanner > SMB share.

Brother DCP-L2550DW here. One of the cheapest b/w multifunction devices with automatic document feeder and reasonable print and scan performance. Works like a charm on Linux, Windows, Android, and IOS.

I am using it with [NAPS2](https://www.naps2.com/), which is brilliantly simple, multi-platform, free, and open-source.

Just one of their Color-Laser scanner/printer combos. Works like a charm for iOS, Linux, MacOS, Windows.
