I just upgraded from Dapper to Hardy and can't get my printer to work. The printer dialog box shows the printer and that it is "ready" but when I try to print all looks ok but nothing happens.
The printer is a Brother multi function MFC-5840CN connected as a local printer.
Here is what i did so far to try to get it working. I completely removed it from the system, downloaded the cupswrapper driver from the Brother website, and reinstalled it. I have switched USB ports to no avail. I know the USB ports are mounting ok since I have a SD card in a card reader in the same hub I'm using for the printer and it shows up ok.
Incidentally I have used this same printer successfully with Dapper as a local printer and as a network printer. I currently have it connected as a local one. I dual boot with XP and the printer works fine with XP so apparently the printer itself is ok.
Any help will be much appreciated.
