network printing: printer always busy

[Richard]

> I've installed a Brother laser HL 1230 at 192.168.0.2 on my local network; the printer is attached to a print server which is attached to the router/firewall (Netgear DG 834 GT). The print server is a magic box that worked happily in an identical set up under Windows, but now I'm runningubuntu 7.10
>
> The installation seemed to go smoothly; foomatic OK, ppd OK, protocol http: and no error message returned. I can ping the print server.. But print a test page gives a permanent 'the printer is busy' message. Where should I look?
>
> TIA


Sorry- I forgot to say I'm using cups 1.2.8
