Hi Guys i'm a newbie on CUPS. i'm reading a lot but i can't find a solution.
At this moment i have a Ubuntu Server 14.04 64bits running CUPS 1.6.2. 
This printer is a network printer with IP address 10.0.0.10

I install the printer from web http://127.0.0.1:631 the printer is 
visible to this host and is installed as 
dnssd://Brother%20MFC-8480DN._pdl-datastream._tcp.local/
When i send a test print i have to wait as least 10 seconds to see the 
any test on my hand.
I try this connections:
http://10.0.0.10:631/ipp
lpd://10.0.0.10:631/ps
lpd://10.0.0.10:631/BINARY_P1

The problem get worst when i send a pdf document to print. if i send a 
pdf with only one page CUPS stay waiting for 5 minuts and then send to 
printer.

I install ppd from:
* Brother Home Page
* Ubuntu Repositories
* Drag and drop from Windows XP running OK this printer.
Always the ppd is recognized as  Brother MFC-8480DN BR-Script3


I really don't know how to debug this.

Thanks for your time.

Emiliano.
