e.g. it expects SNMP to be enabled and configured with snmp v2c. A security focused person might set this to v3 or have the service off completely. which of the other services in network -> network -> protocol does it actually use for uploading the firmware file?

Yes, we should document the required protocols and the script should notify if one required protocol is not enabled. AFAIK we use

  • zeroconf / mdns to find the printer which is optional
  • SMTP v2c for querying the model information
  • pdl-datastream (port 9100) to upload the firmware to the printer

Currently, I don't have access to a brother printer and can't check the naming of the protocols that is used by brother to write informative messages. Do you want to open a pull request?
