I found these rpms buried on a brother site mfcj280wcupswrapper
mfcj280wlpr after a google search of your model name and ppd 

The mfcj280wlpr is a prereq for the jfcj280wcupswrapper which contains
the ppd file.  I really think that the ppd would be all you would need
just manually specify the ppd file rather than choose the driver.

Also, did you try a generic postscript driver as well?
