Mine works fine with these CUPS settings on my WLAN:

After configuration, the CUPS page reads:

hi,
I don't see any way to configure these settings, either with
system-config-printer or http://localhost:631/admin/
I use <http://localhost:631/admin/>. I see an "Add Printer" and a
"Manage Printers" button. I can click "Manage Printers" and select the
printer. I can select "Administration" / "Modify Printer" in the
dropdown menu, and am prompted for my local username and password. The
Defaults settings above were added automatically when I added the
printer; I included them for completeness.
Are you in the cups group?
Can you tell me how you do that, and what do you mean by "CUPS page"?
The printer information page. In my case:
http://localhost:631/printers/Brother_MFC-L2740DW
Kind regards,
