Public bug reported: Recently upgraded to 8.10 and now my Brother MFC420Cn printer that worked in 8.04 does not work. Tried to add printer. Admin says that CUPS is not started. Go to Services and CUPS is not listed as a service that can be started. Uninstalled CUPS and reinstalled. No change. Web updated today listed an upgrade to CUPS but no change.
Ran 8.04 from CD and it found and installed printer with no problem. Went back to 8.10 and no luck.
