+If your printer isn't included in the list above, just try selecting
+any entry marked 'brlaser' and see if it works.
+
+If it does, please create a new issue here in Github and include the
+output of this command:
+
+    sudo lpinfo --include-schemes usb -l -v
+
+Then I'll be able to add a proper entry for your printer.

 Installation
 ------------
 
-Ubuntu:
-```
-sudo apt-get install autoreconf cups-development libcupsimage2-dev
-./autogen.sh
-make
-sudo make install
-```
+Some operating systems already ship this driver. This is the case for
+at least Debian, Ubuntu, Raspbian, openSUSE and Arch Linux. Look for a
+package named `printer-driver-brlaser`.
+
+You'll also need Ghostscript, in case that's not installed
+automatically.
+
+Once brlaser is installed, you can add your printer using the usual
+CUPS interface.
+
+
+Building from source
+--------------------
+
+To compile brlaser you'll need CMake and the CUPS development packages
+(libcups2-dev, libcupsimage2-dev or similar).
+
+Get the code by cloning the git repo <!-- or downloading the [latest
+release] -->. Compile and install with these commands:
+
+    cmake .
+    make
+    sudo make install
+
+It might be needed to restart CUPS after this.
