Sounds like somebody sick of beans for their vegan diets protein.

One of the prices one pays for being a vegan I guess.  Me, I have one of 
those PETA (People Eating Tasty Animals) T Shirts.  Shrug. :)

Sorry, Brian.  Of course you didn't say that.  It is one of the snags of KMail 
that it sometimes misattributes the quote - and I don't always remember to 
check. :-(

My Brother HL3170CDW has a wireless interface, but no clue as to its 
usability with airprint, mainly because I have it disabled in its own 
menu's and have not explored that route to moving data.

And yes, my router with a DD-WRT reflash CAN do WLAN, but enabling that 
gives the whole world driveby access to my home 4 or 5 machine network 
unless I setup a different network just for the printer. So I have, 
having been attacked via that path, for security reasons, disabled ALL 
the WLAN style wireless.  Cat5E all over the place though.

One piece, swinging in the wind between the house and a small shop 
building nominally 40 feet away with 2 or 3 computers running smallish 
CNC controlled machines in it, and has been swinging in the wind for a 
decade & change now, still works fine right now.  And I've no clue why, 
it stood up to a measured 112mph wind in 2010 that cost me 4 trees and 
most of my fencing and part of the roof, siding and gutters of this 
house.  But the cat5 survived.

The existence of a wireless interface on a printer has no bearing on
whether it supports AirPrint. Many printers have wireless interfaces
and do not support AirPrint.

In addition, an AirPrint printer does not need wireless capability on
it; it is not a requirement. The only requirement is for the printer
to broadcast mDNS.

You can see what your printer does by using the novel idea of looking
at its manual. Guess what? :)

  https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT201311

You are the only person in this thread to own up to having an AirPrint
Brother printer. That places you in an ideal position to test the ideas
proposed in this thread and assist the OP.

I'm interested in what

  avahi-browse -art > discovered

gives.

Would you please post the output here? A minimum of a Jessie install is
needed for something useful.

Never seen it, its an exra cost thing only available to servicing dealers 
I believe.

I didn't claim AirPrint, only that it could have a wlan connection IF it 
was enabled, which it isn't.

I'm still on wheezy, but that output is likely north of 200k.  It finds 
an ipv6 address for a lot of stuff here, but ipv6 is disabled. Or is in 
the configs I use.

Probably 2 dozen stanza's of stuff on this printer, another dozen or so 
on a $110 B&W laser in the basement, and at least that many for an Epson 
NX515 whose printer died from clogged nozzles less than a month after I 
bought it, but its scanner works well. How avahi found it when its not 
even turned on is beyond me unless turning it off is not a full 
powerdown, or the USB cable is powering its interface.  Not to mention 
at least 50 other devices each a separate listing according to the 
protocol avahi queries I guess.  Way too big to post to a mailing list 
w/o an hours editing to trim it down to just this one printer. All the 
printers are shared to 4 other machines, and avahi finds it connected to 
them all, with every protocol in its basket. So I'm not going to inflict 
the list with that much trash data.

Specifications for your printer are not avaialable online? Brother do
not tell you what the printer does? if you cannot be bothered to look,
why should I. Is there an unbelieving emoticon?

I understood that.

nope. I had at least two HP5M for free ten years ago... they died 
recently. There are ps compatible printer for cheap for years now.

for pdf, I only have seen this on news papers, but the subject computer

Well, let's assume that most people buy their equipment rather than
being given it for free.

The HP5M is solely a printer which is fine as far as it goes, but now
I need to buy a scanner, and quite possibly a fax machine, as well.
AFAICT I'd have to use it through a parallel (or serial?) interface.
This laptop has neither. You can network it with 10Base-T for a price,
but no USB connection.

I can see a refurbished one on the web for $340 (if that's the right
model) which is far more than a new AiO.

> There are ps compatible printer for cheap for years now.

So you say, but I never seem to be able to find them in the shops.
And take a typical web site. Here are the categories to refine one's

Ditto. Brian has tried to explain, but I don't completely follow his
explanation. Not being at the cutting edge of mobile phone technology,
I don't have any experience of trying to use it, even if I had an
AirPrint-supporting printer.

> I spoke of gutenprint because I have a Canon photo thermal printer

This is what's common. Not PDFs. And many take a variety of
stick/cards. Hardly surprising: that's what's inside the
cameras. Thank goodness one's not limited to TWAIN. Ugh.

I'm sure they do. (However, they don't support my printer but luckily,
HP does.) But I don't understand the relationship between linux
printing and gutenprint. Actually I don't know much at all about
printing any more. I used to in the days of dot-matrix, having
happily written character definitions and code to rasterise and
print graphics.

Cheers,
David.

I also bought one for $25 (the two of them had already 200.000 copies

of course it was trash bin machines, most companies do not keep machines

Why are you suggesting monochrome models? Please let's compare like
with like. You've disputed my suggestion that having native support
for PDF printing makes a printer expensive compared with the
example in the subject line (list price $250).

which seems to confirm their expensiveness. Taking the lowest numbered
model in each category that prints colour (note, prints only) and is
available to buy:

DCP-9xxx you can buy these in India though I can't work out if they're new.
HL-2700CN $450 (refurbished)
MFC-9010CN $1100

As I said, you're in a different price bracket. Guessing by what I've
seen, it's partly because PDF printing tends to come with lasers
and ethernet, ie for office documents, not home photographs.

Cheers,
David.

*Direct* PDF printing is usually indicated in the printer's literature.

JFTR, it should be noted that USB - RS232 converters (which, AFAIK, all
use the same couple of chipsets which are well supported by linux) are
cheap and readily available, e.g.:

No. (I think you meant PDF).

The PDL of choice for AirPrint capable devices is PDF. A PDF document
sent to an Airprint capable printer is converted to BUL (the Brother
Unknown Language) as it would be if it was processed on a workstation by
CUPS.

Note that this is a conversion, not an interpretation. An interpreter
produces a raster image and this happens later when the RIP deals with
BUL.

The important word is "direct". The MFC-J5720DW doesn't have a  PDF
interpreter. Hence the silence.

it have one for airprint, but may be this one is only available for

http://www.linux-magazine.com/Online/Features/AirPrint

any printer (any hardware?) needs software to make something, be it on 
rom (eprom or flash memory) or driver (the infamous "windows printers").

What the more near to freedom?? no idea.

It has been said in this thread that "Printers are dark and muddy";
there is no need to muddy their operation further, as is done here.

With a CUPS installation the brother_lpdwrapper_mfcj5720dw filter
converts PDF into BUL and sends the data to a RIP (an interpreter)
on the printer. AirPrint uses exactly the same printer as CUPS but
the conversion done by brother_lpdwrapper_mfcj5720dw has to be on
the printer in firmware. Then the RIP takes over. The RIP is not
converting PDF to raster format. There is no PDF interpreter for
AirPrint to use.

Listing 2 on that page isn't needed with Debian CUPS.

I was understanding than one have to send pdf to airprint, but this
