Hello to everybody,

Have you tried, the linux packages from brother ?

I do not own your models, but other ones and when I was working on linux, I used to install the brother linux packages on my PC.

Good luck,

Sincerely,

Yvan

This happens to me now and then, usually when I need to print NOW.
I try reinstalling CUPS and the driver. You could also uninstall the printer(s) and reinstall first. I've had much better luck with HP. I believe they contributed CUPS, so HP printers are at an advantage.

    I am running xubuntu 18.04 LTS.  For apparently no reason, a few days
    ago, my printer(s) stopped printing. I tried both printers (Brother
    MFC-L2710DW and Brother HL-5340 (for DOS printing), both USB
    interface
    to my Compaq computer.

    I swapped printers, printer cables and USB ports.  My attempts to
    print
    are in the CUPS Que.  I can now upon issuing a print command from
    Libreoffice get a piece of blank paper from the Brother MFC 4 in 
    one.
    Nothing from the HL5340.

    i would appreciate any diagnostic ideas.

    John
