[Pkg-cups-devel] Bug#372782: cupsys: cups completely unusable

[Toshiro Viera Stalker]

Package: cupsys
Version: 1.2.1-4
Followup-For: Bug #372782


I have exactly the same problem; I have a Brother HL-1435 that worked
perfectly until cups version 1.2.1-2 (inclusive); now it only prints this:

-12345X at PJL
@PJL JOB NAME="Ghost"
@PJL SET ECONOMODE=OFF
@PJL SET MEDIATYPE=REGULAR
@PJL SET SOURCETRAY=AUTO
@PJL SET RESOLUTION=600
@PJL SET RAS1200MODE=OFF
@PJL ENTER LANGUAGE=PCL

Where can I get the old driver?
