Yeah, I guessed AirPrint had something to do with it. But I'm a little
fuzzy on the relationship between AirPrint and existing protocols.
Wikipedia tells me that it's an extension of IPP. I'm not sure if there's
some special sauce that I'll never get working on linux, or if AirPrint
mostly just detects the settings automatically and the rest is IPP.

I did install both the cupswrapper  filter and the LPD filter. The packages
from brother install to /opt. I'm guessing that's why CUPS doesn't detect
them automatically, but I'm able to browse to the .ppd file when setting up
the printer.

I don't get any errors, but when I try to print, my print job
(successfully) vanishes into the void.
