They do not plan to remove the deprecated functionality in CUPS until the alternative, a printer application that understands legacy CUPS PPD drivers, works well enough: https://github.com/OpenPrinting/pappl-retrofit But only Brother printers using their binary drivers will need that, printers that work with the open source brlaser like yours are already supported by one of the new driverless drivers: https://www.openprinting.org/driver/brlaser/ So you have nothing to worry about, when Fedora CUPS maintainers cut over to the new paradigm your printer should still work. :-) _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
