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:/ -E
Test Print? [y/N] ->y

wait 5s.
lpr -P HLL5100DN /usr/share/cups/data/testprint
ls: cannot access '/etc/udev/rules.d/*.rules': No such file or directory
ls: cannot access '/etc/udev/rules.d/*.rules': No such file or directory
Hit 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
