It seems like that the URL to the driver at Brothers support site has been changed. During compiling the package with pamac I got the following error:

curl: (22) The requested URL returned error: 404 ==> ERROR: Failure while downloading https://download.brother.com/welcome/dlf104036/brscan5-1.2.6-0.x86_64.rpm Aborting...

A note to other users with the Brother DCP-L3510CDW printer/scanner/copier.

This package even though listed did not work for this printer printer has the latest firmware updates. Instead the brscan4 package worked I don't know about other printers on the list but that is what worked on a fresh install of Arch today.

It would be great to have this in the udev rules:

ATTR{idProduct}=="046a", MODE="0664", GROUP="lp", ENV{libsane_matched}="yes"

In lsusb:

Is there a list of which Brother printers this version of brscan is compatible with?

@razerei Download URL for v1.2.3 is https://download.brother.com/welcome/dlf105160/brscan5-1.2.3-0.x86_64.rpm

@coolpyrofreak if you have the download URL for brscan5 1.2.3, I'll be happy to update it, but I can't seem to find it on Brother's site. They still have the latest version as 1.2.2. I'm unflagging for now.

Thanks @aereaux. I verified on the wiki; you're correct it should be in /usr/lib/udev. This was also flagged as out of date so I will update the udev rules location alongside the new driver version (1.2.2-0)

I think the udev rules need to go in "/usr/lib/udev" instead of "/usr/udev"
