Please check if changing the driver to something more generic enables 
you to print again. As said, BR-Script (Brother) and KPDL (Kyocera) are 
both vendor specific Postscript incarnations, so set the driver to 
something similar to Postscript 1/2/3 and see if that helps.
I had success with generic Postscript 1 from foomatic. I need 
confirmation that this is indeed somewhat driver specific before I want 
to poke the devs even more. :)
