    2. Arch drivers package: Aur repo: brother-dcpj4110dw 3.0.1-3
  3. Install the 2 packages for your distribution.
  4. Go to CUPS (http://localhost:631): Administration menu link > Add Printer button > Select the Discovered Network Printers: Brother DCP-J4110DW option and finish the rest of the installation with default settings.
  5. Go to the Administration menu link > Manage Printers button > Click on the new printer DCPJ4110DW > From the Administration drop down list, choose Modify Printer.
    Note: Adding new printer to CUPS requires administrative access, so you should expect authentication prompt for your local credentials during the setup!
