AFAIK there is no free driver (foomatic or gutenprint) for my printer (Brother DCP-8065DN) I tried both with "Brother DCP-8045D Foomatic/Postscript" and "Brother DCP-8085DN Foomatic/Postscript" without luck. Neither of this two drivers is able to print pages. Tried both with cups 1.5.2-5 and 1.5.0-13 Regards
