    Brother HL2270-DW printer installation failure

    Google Search to get the following address:
    askubuntu.com/questions/226307/how-to-install-a-brother-hl2270dw-lazer-printer

    I carefully entered the step by step commands until I got to this point:

    Will you specify the Device URI [Y/n] I chose Y

    0: ippl4
    1: https
    2: socket
    3: hp
    4: ipps
    5: ipp
    6: lpd
    7: http
    8: hpfax
    9 (I): Specify IP address
    10 (A): Auto. (usb: //dev/usblp0) I chose lpd

    lpadmin -p hl2270dw 0r lpd -E

    lpadmin: Bad device-uri "lpd"

    Test Print: (Y/n) I chose y

    wait 5s

    lpr -P hl2270dw /usr/share/cups/date/testprint

    hit Enter/ return key

    Nothing printed.

    What Device URI should I have selected? In my studio I have a Desktop w/Ethernet cable to the router>modem. I have a WIFI laptop to the HL2270DW Lazer Printer. I am alone in my studio and no one else shares my equipment. That is the extent of my network.

    When using the laptop, I connect using WIFI. When using the Desktop PC, I am Ethernet cable connected to the router>modem, but I believe I connect to the printer using WIFI.

    In any event, after completing the above, I still connot print via WIFI.

    Any help will be greatly appreciated.
