 * Brother HL 720 and 730 driver for Ghostscript

 *

 * Note: for the HL 760, use the HP driver.

 *

 * The original code was borrowed from the

 * HP LaserJet/DeskJet driver for Ghostscript.

 * The code specific to the Brother HL 720 was written by :

 *       Pierre-Olivier Gaillard (pierre.gaillard@hol.fr)

 * Thanks to the documentation kindly provided by :

 *        Richard Thomas <RICHARDT@brother.co.uk>

 *

 * Removal of compression code on 1/17/00 by Ross Martin

 * (ross@ross.interwrx.com, martin@walnut.eas.asu.edu)

 * enables this driver to correctly print tiger.eps on a

 * Brother MFC6550MC Fax Machine.  Change to the Horizontal

 * Offset fixes incorrect page alignment at 300dpi in

 * Landscape mode with a2ps.

 */

#include "gdevprn.h"

/* The following line is used though these printers are not PCL printers*/

/* This is because we want the paper size access function */

/* (The 720 is a simple GDI printer) */

#include "gdevpcl.h"

/*

 * You may select a default resolution of  150 (for 730), 300, or

 * 600 DPI in the makefile, or an actual resolution on

 * the gs command line.

 *

 * If the preprocessor symbol A4 is defined, the default paper size is

 * the European A4 size; otherwise it is the U.S. letter size (8.5"x11").

 *

 * You may find the following test page useful in determining the exact

 * margin settings on your printer.  It prints four big arrows which

 * point exactly to the for corners of an A4 sized paper. Of course the

 * arrows cannot appear in full on the paper, and they are truncated by

 * the margins. The margins measured on the testpage must match those

 * in gdevdjet.c.  So the testpage indicates two facts: 1) the page is

 * not printed in the right position 2) the page is truncated too much

 * because the margins are wrong. Setting wrong margins in gdevdjet.c

 * will also move the page, so both facts should be matched with the

 * real world.

     * The compression here causes problems printing tiger.eps.

     * The problem is vertical streaks.  The printer I'm printing

     * to is a Brother MFC6550MC Fax Machine, which may be

     * slightly different from the hl720 and hl730.  Note that

     * this fax machine does support HP LaserJet 2p emulation,

     * setup from a DOS program included with the printer.  Thus,

     * the hl7x0 driver seems a better choice.  In any case,

     * on the MFC6550MC, some files print fine with compression

     * turned on, but others such as tiger.eps print with streaks.

     * disabling the compression fixes the problem, so I haven't

     * looked any further at the cause.  It may be that the

     * compression is correct for the hl720 and hl730, and only

     * different for the MFC6550MC, or it may be that tiger.eps

     * won't print correctly with compression enabled on any

     * of these.  It may be that the problem is only with color

     * and/or grayscale prints.  YMMV.  I don't think it likely

     * that turning off compression will cause problems with
