This provides the PPD (Postscript Printer Description) driver for
Brother DCP-L8410CDW printer and is needed by CUPS to support it.
This is merely a repackaging of the official "deb" package.
You can check if the PPD is installed correctly by:
$ lpinfo -m | grep 8410
Brother/brother_dcpl8410cdw_printer_en.ppd Brother DCP-L8410CDW CUPS
To add the printer to CUPS, first its URI must be retrieved:
$ lpinfo -v
...
network lpd://BRWD0123456789A/BINARY_P1
And eventually, the printer can be added to CUPS by:
# lpadmin \
-p mybrother \ # name
-L "Valhalla" \ # location
-D "The Almighty Printer" \ # description
-E \ # enable
-v lpd://BRWD0123456789A/BINARY_P1 \ # device URI
-P /usr/share/cups/model/brother_dcpl8410cdw_printer_en.ppd
Later, it may be removed with:
# lpadmin -x mybrother
