+    [Setup instructions](http://support.brother.com/g/s/id/linux/en/instruction_prn1a.html).
+
+    URI example
+     ~  `lpd://BRW0080927AFBCE/binary_p1`
+
+    Logging
+    -------
+    
+    `/tmp/br_cupswrapper_ml1.log` when `DEBUG > 0` in `brother_lpdwrapper_BrGenML1`.
+    Note that when `DEBUG > 1` the wrapper stops performing its function. Better
+    keep `DEBUG == 1` unless this is desirable.
+
+    Now activable through this package's `debugLvl` parameter whose value is to be
+    used to establish `DEBUG`.
+
+    Issues
+    ------
+
+     1.  >  Error: /tmp/brBrGenML1rc_15642 :cannot open file !!
+
+        This is a non fatal issue. The job will still be printed. However, not sure
+        what kind of information could be lost.
+
+        There should be a more elegant way to patch this.
