 |

I followed this guide.
'lpinfo -v' returns:
| Code: | # lpinfo -v
network beh
file cups-brf:/
network https
network ipps
network socket
network lpd
network ipp
network http
network lpd://BRNB422004195D9/BINARY_P1
|
So I add the printer with the command:
| Code: | lpadmin -p brother-everywhere -E -v ipp://192.168.1.49/ipp -m everywhere
|
lpstat -t returns:
| Code: | # lpstat -t
scheduler is running
system default destination: brother-everywhere
device for brother-everywhere: ipp://192.168.1.49/ipp
device for Brother_MFC-L2710DN_series: lpd://BRNB422004195D9/BINARY_P1

printing a test page from the CUPS web interface returns "printer is unavailable at this time."
Adding the printer via CUPS doesn't show the correct driver (instead offers MFC-L2710DW), and when I try to print with that I get "unable to locate BRNB422004195D9"
How do I troubleshoot this? I was able to print documents with this same interface a month ago, but I have no idea what's changed in between.
Thanks for the help,

How did you solve your problem?
I'm getting same error message on both of my network printer " Unable to locate printer "brother-5370" |
