Yes, what I'd mentioned is that resolving a dnssd address to an IP
address needs help from the printer, so if it's asleep that might be
why it stays asleep.

It's possible that changing the connection would help, to some other
type based on the IP address (I don't know what connection types
Brother printers support I'm afraid, but the GUI will). Of course,
resolving the IP address to a MAC address _also_ needs the printer's
help, but the ARP cache on the client end might help and you've said
it's a statically-allocated address.
