printing with Brother printer doesn't work

I have a Brother MFC-L2750DW from which I'm trying to print. I got the drivers installed. I have CUPS daemon started. But when I send a job to the printer, nothing happens. The printer will give the message "receiving data" and CUPS will show either the job completed or stopped.

I don't always have the printer connected. I use a USB connection when it is connected. I just now plugged in to try to test the printer again. On the CUPS page (localhost:631), when I go to Administration, then "Manage Printers", I get this message for status:

Code:Idle - "File "/usr/lib64/cups/filter/brother_lpdwrapper_MFCL2750DW" has insecure permissions (0100755/uid=1002/gid=100)."If I check the file:

Code:bash-5.0$ ls -la /usr/lib64/cups/filter/brother_lpdwrapper_MFCL2750DW
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 55 Aug 7 16:01 /usr/lib64/cups/filter/brother_lpdwrapper_MFCL2750DW -> /opt/brother/Printers/MFCL2750DW/cupswrapper/lpdwrapperI sent a print test page job and the CUPS page says this:

Quote:
Description:Brother MFC-L2750DW series
Location:Local Printer
Driver:Brother MFCL2750DW for CUPS (grayscale, 2-sided printing)
Connection:usb://Brother/MFC-L2750DW%20series?serial=123456
Defaults:job-sheets=none, none media=na_letter_8.5x11in sides=one-sided
And the "state" below that summary says "stopped".

If I'm reading the permissions correctly, it looks like any user can execute commands on the printer? If I'm correct, why can't I print anything?latest?d=yIl2AUoC8zA latest?i=UnIhxjXHPoA:3F0xkteCNLw:F7zBnMy latest?i=UnIhxjXHPoA:3F0xkteCNLw:V_sGLiP latest?d=qj6IDK7rITs latest?i=UnIhxjXHPoA:3F0xkteCNLw:gIN9vFwUnIhxjXHPoA
