Comments
Users have reported that this printer works with the "hl1250" driver with both 300 and 600 dpi. As with the Brother HL-1240 the 600-dpi resolution will only work with the "hl1250" driver and can be problematic due to unsufficient memory.
Brother provides a driver, too, but binary-only and only for LPD/LPRng. According to the printout quality it is based on the "ljet4" Ghostscript driver. "pxlmono", "gimp-print" (600 dpi), and "hpijs-pcl5e" (600 dpi) give a better grayscale quality and all special features of the printer are accessible by PJL commands.
