Using a brother MFC-420CN, installed for network printing per Wiki instructions here: http://gentoo-wiki.com/Brother_MFC_420CN/Cups This works great for cups-1.2.12. After upgrading cups to 1.3.7 printing fails without any indication as to why. /var/log/cups/error_log just shows a message that the document was printed successfully. After reemerging cups-1.2.12 things worked fine without changing any config files. I'd be happy to provide more information on request. --- cupsd.conf --- AccessLog /var/log/cups/access_log ErrorLog /var/log/cups/error_log MaxLogSize 1M LogLevel debug # Administrator user group...

1.3.8 seems to work fine now
