Please, read https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Brother_networked_printer and ask for support on forum: https://forums.gentoo.org/ I do not think somebody will add an ebuild for this.
what about adding brother drivers to cups ??
According to the download site the "generic" should work. An ebuild net-print/brother-genml1-bin is available on brother-overlay: https://github.com/stefan-langenmaier/brother-overlay/tree/master/net-print
