Try downloading it again (since it's not part of the archives, it must be downloaded manually) and running 'apt install ./brscan4-......deb' (substituting the actual file name, naturally). The './' is necessary to tell apt it's a file name.

comp@AbNormal:~/Desktop$ sudo apt install ./brscan4-0.4.10-1.i386.deb
