I don't use xsane, but my Brother multi-function color laser scans with
the Gnome scanning app with no problems.  It depends on what you mean by
"out of the box".  I did install a driver at one point and I assume
that's still being used.

I've now checked and I can't find any installed driver and cups says
it's "driverless", so that would imply it working out of the box and I
would expect any newer models to do the same.

If it is driverless, it is probably using IPP or IPP over USB. See
<https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/cups-useful-tricks/>.

Yes, it's a wifi printer and it's using IPP and it's working fine.  I
was just clarifying my previous comment where I thought I had installed
a driver.

Btw, my Fedora computer is apparently the only one that can print
double-sided properly to it.  The phones and Windows computers will only
print short side flip for some reason even if long is selected.  It's
very strange.

That sounds like
<https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/cups-known-issues/#_there_are_less_options_available_if_the_device_is_used_as_driverless_than_with_a_classic_driver>.

You got that completely backwards. I have no issues at all using Fedora. It's everyone else that it isn't working for.
