That is a network issue, not a printing issue.

The URI for your device is

  ipp://BRW5CEA1DA1299E.local:631/ipp/print

What I would do is set up a print queue by substituting for URI in

  lpadmin -p 2710 -v URI -E -m everywhere

and first test with

  lp -d 2710 /etc/nsswitch.conf

Then try a test page.

Cheers,

Brian.
