Am trying to get a Brother HL-2240 printer working with a new debian

.deb format that installed and worked easily under Lenny using the
gnome Printer install menu. Under Squeeze, the gnome Printer install
menu seems to be looking for a PPD file, but Brother does not have a
PPD format driver for the HL-2240. Also tried using aptitude to
install it but cannot get aptitude to look in a local directory for a
.deb file. (Am not sure if using aptitude will work anyway since the
file is driver is LPR and not PPD.) Anyone know how to get a LPR
driver that works under Lenny to work under Squeeze?
The instructions on the Brother web site work well. I have a Brother
HL-2240 connected to a Squeeze server and it prints fine.
