I don't have a live CD to try. I tried the Generic PCL4 suggestion, and that worked. When I changed the ppd back to the Brother version, it still worked. Then I restarted the machine for an unrelated purpose (other maintenance was installed). After the restart, it failed again. I'm attaching the error log. After two pages came out, I canceled the print job and removed all the paper from the printer so it wouldn't go on forever. The first page had this: %-123...@pjl @PJL ENTER LANGUAGE = HBP @l...@g The second page had only the letter 'P' on the far right side of the page near the top. I tried the gs -dNOPAUSE suggestion and it had similar results. I only let it print one page, and the output was the same as before except there was a 'q' after the '@l...@g'.
