For Brother MFC-295CN Printer Scanner Fax Machine. After installing all 
of the Brother Drivers and Apps, my scanner still didn't work. I found 
this on the Brother Support Site along with the drivers and apps (that 
is where I downloaded them all and installed them from the RPM's). Later 
I saw them listed in  in Add/Remove Programs too. But I didn't see them 
in the list until after I did the manual downloads and installs. There 
are other Distros shown there too. It worked for me. The info is at...
