HOWTO: Set up your Brother 2030/70 Laser printer

[mattsl]

FYI: This HOWTO works for the hl-2035 model too (I'm on Hardy).

Old post, but to make it work in Ibex you have to create the directory

/usr/share/cups/model/

.
Else I got this error message on configuring the wrapper

Thanks. Works fine for HL-2030 on Ubuntu 10.04.

I have HL-2035. Ubuntu 10.04 I did everything as in the first post, and printer does not print. Where to look for error?
