The package has a path bug that prevents printing. The PKGBUILD installs the filter binary to: /opt/brother/Printers/dcpt426w/lpd/x86_64/brdcpt426wfilter and /opt/brother/Printers/dcpt426w/lpd/i686/brdcpt426wfilter

But the wrapper script at /opt/brother/Printers/dcpt426w/cupswrapper/brother_lpdwrapper_dcpt426w tries to execute it from: /opt/brother/Printers/dcpt426w/lpd/brdcpt426wfilter

This results in "No such file or directory" errors and prints fail with 0 bytes sent.

Workaround: sudo cp /opt/brother/Printers/dcpt426w/lpd/x86_64/brdcpt426wfilter /opt/brother/Printers/dcpt426w/lpd/

Fix: The PKGBUILD should either copy the x86_64 filter to the parent lpd/ directory, or create a symlink.
