Brother printer stopped working

Hi, My Brother HL-2140 printer which has been working perfectly has suddenly stopped working. I'm using Kubuntu 8.04 on amd64 which I keep up to date and I guess it was due to a recent update, but I don't use it all that much so I don't know exactly when it got broken. I enabled debug logging in cups and it shows that something is seg faulting. The log is posted here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8846976 Anyone have any advice about how to fix it?

I tried a PPD file from openprinting.org and that works, so problem solved. It is odd that it broke all by itself though, and that no-one else seems to be having this issue. Glenn -- Glenn Ramsey <glenn(a)componic.co.nz> 07 8627077 http://www.componic.co.nz
