Question: I'm looking to install drivers for my "Brother HL-2170W" network printer. I can't seem to find the correct driver on the Brother site. Any help would be appreciated. I'm running on Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS x86\_64.

Answer: 
This guy at: <http://mikebeach.org/2010/06/ubuntu-and-brother-hl-2170w/>
says there is a problem in 10.04 with a fault in the cups drivers, at least for the HL-2170W. 

Text worked okay but printing graphics took a long time. This was true for me. I followed his advice precisely and now my pdf files are printing great. I have only tested one page, probably should test a few more complex graphics but for now I'm a very happy camper. So I wanted to share the wealth.

Lots of other people on the ubuntu forums seem to be complaining about slow printing so I suspect that it is not only the HL-2170W printer driver that is bad. But step 8 in his instruction list will need to be changed, I think for printers other than HL-2170W.

Hope this helps.
Without any specific knowledge of this printer -- does the printer support Postscript?

If so you can try a generic ps driver.
