Brother ships a plastic bag with such things as driver disc, manual, warranty registration card and such with its printers. Generally these things have a copyright date on or in them somewhere. From the paper manuals from my two most recent Brother acquisitions: MFC-J480DW - © 2015 MFC-8910DW - © 2012 The one for my HL-5470DW is more effectively squirreled since I moved. Its pdf manual has no date near its front or back that I could spot, but the timestamp on it is 122 months ago, same as a freshly downloaded copy. -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science.
