This looks as if brscan4's source has been removed but not the
the package itself.
As David Wright, I'd propose purging it (sudo apt-get purge brscan4),
instead of re-installing it, if you are happy with your driverless
setup.

brscan si useless for printing but mandatory¹ for scanning. But indeed,
driveless printing works just fine on Brother printers
I wish scanning didn't require proprietary blobs…
1. At least on (**only** some?) Brother MFPs?
