Well, I thought it did :-( But I have now done some more testing
on another machine (with the same printer) and it sometime failed
with unidir alone. Maybe I did have finger trouble before ...

Anyway I have now tested a few times with just no-reattach, and it
has worked every time.

So it seems that just no-reattach does the trick.

I have attached a trivial patch, but it does not have a bug URI in the
comment.

But what you have below looks fine:-

  Somehow my last message repeated -o usb-no-reattach-default=true
  when the first should have been -o usb-unidir-default=true .
  
  That is either option fixes the bug it seems.
  
  I am editing /usr/share/cups/usb/org.cups.usb-quirks for now but it
  is not clear to me which option to use: unidir or no-reattach?
  Which is preferable?

ael: can you confirm that unidir (without no-reattach) alone works?

Given the other Brother printers listed in the quirks file, I'd tend to 
think that 'no-reattach' is necessary though, see attached patch.

Thanks in advance, cheers,

It did on my first test. But I want to do some more checking just to
make sure. From more than 1 machine.

Unfortunately I am about to go away from the printer for some time, but
I will try to fit the extra tests in before I go.

Yes, I noticed that too when editing the org.cups.usb-quirks file,
which is one of the reasons that I wanted to check further in case
I had finger trouble before :-)

I suspect that the same will hold for the Brother HL-1270, which I 
believe is just the same printer with an extra network card installed.
But I don't know the idProduct code for that, and it would only be
a guess.

But those other Brother models are a little later and might have a
different processor... The HL-1250 has a Sparc.
