Adding a quirk is the last resort. We do it when we know that
nothing else works. Although Oliver mentioned in the thread that
Brother HL-1440 has questionable firmware, I would like to give
the investigation another try. Would you be willing to send me
a usbmon trace?

If yes, please start capturing before the first job, so I see
an example that works.
