You only have to do this once as root/sudo to set up the queue

QUEUENAME is whatever you want to call the printer queue.

So, eg:

# lpadmin -p J6920 -v  ipp://Brother%20MFC-J6920DW._ipp._tcp.local/  -E -m 
everywhere

Before and after you execute the above, what is output of:

$ driverless

?

Adding an everywhere queue via lpadmin may fix this:

but it will be interesting to see about the tray selection issue.
