I have a Brother 2170W network printer.
I followed the instructions to install CUPS. I got a PPD from OpenPrinting, and added the printer through the web administration.
First, the printer is not appearing in any of my applications. I only get "Print to File" and "Print to LPR".
Second, when I go in CUPS and try to print a test page, it just hangs forever. The status message is Processing - "Connecting to printer..."
Here's the printer information from CUPS.
Description: Brother HL-2170W series
Location:
Driver: Brother HL-2170W Foomatic/pxlmono (recommended) (grayscale, 2-sided printing)
Connection: lpd://BRN001BA92DD7CC/BINARY_P1
Defaults: job-sheets=none, none media=na_letter_8.5x11in sides=one-sided
It works fine in Ubuntu so I figure there's just some configuration issues here.
