Problem with Brother HL-5250DN Laser Printer
HL-5250dn ona Bonjour network will not work with Leopard
my HL-5250DN Brother printer has been working perfectly on a Bonjour network with Tiger (Mac software). I upgraded to Leopard, and it will print one page ok, then locks up when trying to print anything more. I have to delete the printer, then add a new printer. Then it will print one more page, then lock up. Any ideas

Brother is totally fucked up under Leopard, found so far no chance to fix it. Brother's own printer drivers are 10.4 only -- lame

On Leopard, I have it configured as IPP printer via TCP/IP -- download Brothers remote printing console from the support site (select ALL software, OS 10.5) ... sometimes it finds the printer, sometimes not; if not: restart your printer; if still not resetting the network card might help (as per http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/BSC/public/as/sg/en/faq/faq/000000/000100/000005/faq000105_009.html?reg=as&c=sg&lang=en&prod=hl2070n_all)
another sleep deprived user tells us at <http://exilejedi.livejournal.com/205600.html> to revert back to TCP/IP printing, but :
the 5070N will not print correctly using Bonjour under 10.5. You want the CUPS driver and the "HP Jetdirect - Socket" protocol. Then poof! It's all happy again
same holds for the 5250DN ... so I repeat Brother=LAME ... but now we know how to survive their incompetence
