Hello? Does anyone else in the world anywhere use Brother printers? No suggestions at all?

Hi, this may not be the right place to ask this question, if it's not, could someone point me there? (thanks) I've got lprng 3.8.2.1 installed (rpm), ifhp 3.4.9, and ghostscript 5.50 that ships with redhat 7.1... printing text files from a linux command line works ok. printing from a windows box (2k/9x) results in: cat /var/spool/lpd/hp1250/status using model 'gs_ljet4' at 11:41:43.004 setting up printer at 11:41:43.006 pagecounter 0 at 11:41:43.025 sending job file at 11:41:43.025 starting transfer at 11:41:43.025 initial job type 'PJL' at 11:41:43.025 decoded job type 'PJL' at 11:41:43.025 job is PJL and PJL not supported at 11:41:43.025 /etc/printcap looks like: gs_ljet4:Brother HL 1250: :sh:lp=/dev/lp0: :af=acct:lf=log: :sd=/var/spool/lpd/%P: :ifhp=model=gs_ljet4: :if=/usr/libexec/filters/ifhp I'm using the gs_ljet4 driver, which seemed like the closest match. I was about to install ghostscript 7.03, because I'm guessing that model gs_ljet4 is "Ghostscript LaserJet 4", and that a newer version of Ghostscript may work better... am i barking up the wrong tree? Has anyone managed to get these printers working?
