This problem appeared after updating saucy (13.10). Brother MFC-9340CDW on Wifi worked before, now won't work.

CUPS queue uses URI lpd://BRW485AB63B3500/BINARY_P1
  but shows error "Unable to locate printer "BRW485AB63B3500"

- Can ping the printer

- Can visit the printer's web interface using it's IP address in firefox; confirmed node name is "BRW485AB63B3500"

- lpinfo -v does list lpd://BRW485AB63B3500/BINARY_P1

- avahi-browse -a lists "eth0 IPv4 Brother MFC-9340CDW" as both a "UNIX printer" and "PDL printer"
    (but then hangs - have to interrupt it with ^C)

I'm pretty sure this worked a week ago.
