Till recently I used a Brother HL-1440 without problems.  This printer
(I think) understands the HP PCL4 control language.  The HL-5240DN
understands a variety of control languages: 
	PCL6, BR-Script 3 (PostScript® 3™), Epson FX-850, IBM ProPrinter XL
to be exact.  The driver I'm using appears to send postscript to the
printer.  It is identified in the printer control website
(http://localhost:631/admin) as:
	Brother HL-5250DN BR-Script3 (grayscale, 2-sided printing)

I don't think it's GhostScript (tm) that's choking but rather the
printer itself, though I may be wrong here.  Any ideas on how to
investigate?
