This is a wishlist bug.

Using Squeeze and wanted to install a new Brother HL-2130 laser printer.
Noticed that the printer is not in the printer list from Debian.

Went to Brother's Linux driver site (http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/bsc/public_s/id/linux/en/download_prn.html#HL-2130),
download the packages and everthing works well.

Suggest to update Debian's driver list (since Brother is providing them) so that these working drivers can be added to benefit future users.

Thank you for your report, Michal. You instigated a useful discussion.

The drivers may indeed work but they are (partly) non-free. They are
not eligible to be added to Debian.

Regards,

Brian.
