BTW, I’ve had my Brother laser MFP for 11 years and still on the original toner.

    Oh, yeah. lol. It’s the Linux scanner framework. It has a network protocol that will talk to other SANE services and allow scanners to be shared.

    My scan programs all go through SANE, so you don’t need the Brother drivers on each PC you want to scan from (just the machine that is interfacing with the scanner; in my case, it’s a Docker container on my server).

    Learning I could do that was pretty life changing. lol
