Public bug reported:

I have a Brother Printer that is connected to my NAS and which I could
print to in 11.10, 12.04 and 12.10. I'm using a Brother printer driver
from the Brother page.

After upgrading one of my PCs to 13.04 it stopped working, ever since
(13.10, 14.04) I cannot print over IPP anymore. When I connect it
straight to the Notebook per USB the printer works fine though. As I'm
sitting right next to my printer with this notebook most of the time, I
always hoped that it will be fixed in another release and lived with it
to plug the cable into the pc whenever needed.

For that reason my other notebook is still running on 12.10, it is still
printing fine and I refuse to update it, as my wife wouldn't be happy if
she'd had to plug in the usb cable each time.

I had several attempts and fresh installs on my other notebook and spent
after each release upgrade several hours to try to get it working again,
but couldn't get it working ever since. I checked into every detail and
compared the setup between the 2 computers thinking I must have missed
something, but I couldn't find anything. When I print over IPP on 14.04
it just prints several blank papers until I cancel it.

My connection setting that works on 12.10 but not on 13.04 upwards:

ipp://nas:631/printers/NASPR2
Driver: Brother DCP7030 for CUPS

My distro is  Kubuntu
