I deleted the proprietary printer driver for my brother laser hl-l2395dw, then on KDE try adding a printer. It does detect the printer in the "discovered printers" section I see a hll2395dw "driverless" option. But if I choose that, I'm prompted to fill in an ip address and some other info (port?). So I don't think this is actually working. Choosing instead Brother's proprietary driver works and connects via dnssd without asking me for other info.
