Use pcl_p1 for the printer's address when using the PCL-6 driver. This printer also works with the generic PCL-6 driver from the gutenprint package. Use the Generic PCL 6 Printer wide margin - CUPS+Gutenprint driver, with address ipp://hostname-or-ip/pcl_p1. Use the lpd protocol as described in #Network printers. Use the socket protocol as described in #Network printers Using the brother driver, only defaults are honored and print-specific settings are ignored. Or Brother's driver, which may result in failed prints with postscript errors.īrlaser-git AUR works better. Using the Generic PCL 6/PCL XL Printer - CUPS+Gutenprint ( gutenprint and foomatic-db-gutenprint-ppds). Use IPP and Brother's driver to avoid page-shrinking and endless blank printouts Install Brother's driver or brother-hl3040cn AUR. Select HL-2170W as the driver in CUPS admin when adding a printer. Should be compatible with any drivers for the HL-2030. Or foomatic - works mostly with hpijs-pcl5e.ppd. Use IPP driver as described here and here. Unofficial driver, may be compatible with more models
