Hi, I hope someone can help.
I am trying to print from my laptop wirelessly to my Brother HL-4040CN printer. It has a built-in print server and I have a feeling they arent communicating, but i am not entirely sure of that.
I am running Hardy Heron Xubuntu with a Broadcom legacy wireless driver.
I can get into the print server via firefox and also my other windows networked computer, but i cannot get any life out of my printer.
I followed the instructions on Brothers website:
Install LPR driver then the CUPS wrapper driver, add printer via cups.
I did all this and setup my printer on "lpd://xx.xx.xx.xx/binary_p1".
(yes i put the printers IP in there)
here is my printers conf file:
#
#
# Sample configuration file for the Common UNIX Printing System (CUPS)
# scheduler. See "man cupsd.conf" for a complete description of this
# file.
#
# Log general information in error_log - change "info" to "debug" for
# troubleshooting...
LogLevel warning
# Administrator user group...

# Only listen for connections from the local machine.
Listen localhost:631
Listen /var/run/cups/cups.sock
# Show shared printers on the local network.

My error log gives me these readings when I try to print:

I am on day 2, I need help.
