Well the printer installed, but CUPS is not printing to it. Keep getting
"unable to find printer" or "printer not responding" messages. I can
ping the print server (TrendNet TE-100P-1U) OK, and the setup worked
fine with Fedora 15. I've tried restarting the print server and
restarting the printer. 


Description:	B/W laser printer
Location:	
Driver:	Brother HL-1440 - CUPS+Gutenprint v5.2.9 (grayscale, 2-sided
printing)
Connection:	dnssd://PS-742289-U1._printer._tcp.local/
Defaults:	job-sheets=none, none media=na_letter_8.5x11in sides=one-sided
