I’m more of a casual/newbie Linux user and I want to know if a specific Brother model is compatible with it. For reference, it’s the HL-L2465DW monochrome laser printer.

    Unfortunately your model doesn’t seem to be on that list. Brother provides linux drivers for some of their models, but they tend to be a bit of a pain to get installed (I’ve got HL-3040CN). Once you get the brother drivers ready the thing just works, and I guess part of the issues I’ve had is that my model is pretty old and drivers haven’t been updated in a decade or so.

    If you already have the printer just plug it in to a mint computer and you’ll soon find out.
