Public bug reported:

My printer is a Brother HL-L2320D laser printer connected via USB with
no option for wifi-printing as it's not supported by this printer. It is
connected via a USB 3.0 port on my laptop. I'm logged in via regular
user, not admin. It is odd that it acts as though it's going to print,
then when it's done processing it just disappears from the print que as
if the print has been completed. This isn't specific to my Brother
printer. I also had this problem with an HP printer prior to replacing
the old HP printer. I had this happen in Lubuntu and also in Ubuntu.

I expected my files to print, but they didn't. I did successfully print
two of the 6 documents, but what's different about them versus the
others, I have no idea. I tried printing via Eye of MATE (which was the
default program to open some of the files), and I tried printing them
via Firefox, and another file via Libre Office Writer. LO Writer won't
print. Eye of Mate won't print. Firefox won't print.

I restarted cups via the terminal with "service cups restart" and tried
printing via Eye of MATE. It didn't work. I then tried to print via LO
Writer. Of the six page document, only the first page printed. What the
heck is going on? I then exported that Writer document (which was saved
both as .odt and as .docx (neither would print properly or at all) as
PDF and opened that with Atril Document Viewer, and it also wouldn't
print. It acted like it was processing then disappeared from the
Document Printer Status window as if it had completed. Clicking the
checkbox it appears as though it was completed.

I've never had so many problems trying to print before. I know it's not
specific to HP printers, because it's my current printer that's behaving
the same way as my old HP and this is Brother.

I hoped restarting cups again would fix it, it has not.

Switching to a USB 2.0 port didn't resolve the problem.
