I have a Brother HL-1250 connected to /dev/lpa0. I downloaded my .ppd
file from linuxprinting.org:
http://www.linuxprinting.org/ppd-o-matic.cgi?driver=hl1250&printer=Brother-HL-1250&show=0
and placed it to /usr/local/share/cups/model/Brother-HL-1250-hl1250.ppd.

When I print a test page using the web interface, I get only one line
printed to the paper: Unknown device: hl1250.

$ ls -l Brother-HL-1250-hl1250.ppd

-r--r--r--  1 root  bin  10998 Feb  6 14:31 Brother-HL-1250-hl1250.ppd

$ cat /etc/cups/printers.conf

# Printer configuration file for CUPS v1.1.20
