"brlaser" Brother DCP-7030 printer driver
Driver for (some) Brother laster printers
=========================================
This is a driver for the Brother DCP-7030 laser printer. It might also
be worth trying if you have some other old Brother monochrome laser
printer.
Most Brother printers support a standard printer language such as PCL
or PostScript, but not all do. If you have a monochrome Brother laser
printer (or multi-function device) and the other open source drivers
don't work, this one might help.
Currently this printer is not supported by other free software
drivers. Ghostscript's hl1250 driver almost works, but has glitches
with some fonts. (That driver tries to use PCL emulation, but that
seems to be buggy on this printer. The proprietary driver never uses
that mode.)
It is known to support these printers:
Brother provides a non-free x86-only driver.
Requirements
------------
* CUPS: tested with version 1.6.
* A C++11 compiler: GCC 4.6 or later, or a recent version of Clang.
* Brother DCP-7030
* Brother DCP-7065DN
