Has it ever worked in Fedora 32? There was a bug where mDNS was
removed from nsswitch.conf when I upgraded to F32 that broke printing
for me until I added it back.
Earlier today I discovered that I could not print from this Fedora
32. It has always printed without a problem. The printer is Ethernet
connected to my LAN. I have gone through the setup with cups, the
fedora/gnome admin app, and now the Brother liinux install tool.
Cups shows:HLL5100DN <
http://localhost:631/printers/HLL5100DN>
HLL5100DN Brother HLL5100DN for CUPS Paused -
"could not create directory "/root/BRF": Permission denied"
The Brother install tool quits when it tries to make a test print and
finds it can't see the printer:
lpadmin -p HLL5100DN -v cups-brf:/ -ETest Print? [y/N] ->y
wait 5s.lpr -P HLL5100DN /usr/share/cups/data/testprintls: cannot
access '/etc/udev/rules.d/*.rules': No such file or directoryls:
cannot access '/etc/udev/rules.d/*.rules': No such file or
directoryHit Enter/Return key.
I began writing this yesterday, this morning we tried and were able
to print from a Mac portable via wifi so that says the printer works
at least. Something is corrupted in my computer it appears?
And doing "ctrl p" fails with:

Any thoughts on what to do? Bob
