Hi Jeff, thank you fot testing.

You're right again. I copied the printer models from the compatibility list but forgot that the driver expects them to be listed without hyphen. I've corrected that and uploaded it to PPA. The new package should be built in the next (half?) hour.
Now everything *should* work, but you never know ...

At my machine the MFC-7420 *is* listed: I've installed all Brother packages and it appears quite at the bottom of the list (the 6th last or so) as "Brother MFC7420 for CUPS (en)". The list is a bit fuzzy because some printers are listed with hyphen and some others without.
Wasn't the printer detected automatically after installing the packages and turning (off and) on the printer?
