I have been trying to get my Brother HL-1240 laser printer working in FreeBSD. It was a little bit of a pain to do in linux but I got it working with CUPS with the help of some GUI front end stuff to sort through the rubbish? Is there any way to do this without CUPS. I have tried APSFILTER and the docs I see on the web say to use the laserjet ghostscript driver. This is USB printer and when I try to print the testpage my machine resets itself. This is clearly bad behavior. I have downloaded ghostscript 7.0 and am going to try it a little later today. Can anyone help me? I'd hate to have to build a small linux machine as my printserver....
