Get the right Linux driver for my Brother printer

I've been having trouble with my Brother HL-5370DW. It prints fine under windows but not under Linux. Eventually I figured out how to solve the problem:
  1. Get the right driver from the Brother driver page: http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/bsc/public_s/id/linux/en/download_prn.html#HL-5370DW
  2. Download the PPD file instead of any binary files
  3. Feed the PPD file into the system
And how it works flawlessly.
