[cups] [Brother MFC-8480DN] Printing Slow

[Helge Blischke]

Emiliano,

first, sorry for forgetting the "-d" switch in the lp command.

Second, it seems that the "without_patch.ps" is what you should try to  
achieve.
The openprinting's pdftops filter accepts an option
"-o make-and-model=xxxxxx",
so you could set a default option for the printer by
lpadmin -o make-and-model-default=noBrother -p Brother-MFC-8480DN
If that does not work, you could edit the printer's PPD and change the  
line
*Manufacturer: "Brother"
to
*Manufacturer: "noBrother"

The sosurce says that under certain conditions (with halftoned images)  
the printer might stall
or print garbage. If that occurs, let me know; I'll then send you a  
PPD patch for that.

Good luck!

Helge
