After a recent sid dist-upgrade, I'm having problems
printing.
The CUPS test page prints a border with this text only:
Brother HL-5340D Series
3010.106 5
-88807824
That is using the 5240 driver.
I tried a couple other Brother HL-* drivers, but no success.
Now, I've got a PPD file for HL-5340D
33 matches
