Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: cups
I have not been able to get my Brother hl2270dw printer to work with
ubuntu 11.04 on my dual boot HP dm3-2010us laptop.   After several weeks
of frustration and search for info on Brother's site I found they had a
tool to install their drivers!  So I downloaded the tool and tried to
use it.  After issuing the invoking it I got an red msg that said "CUPS
NOT INSTALLED"  However, the software center listed CUPS as installed.
So I decided to remove it and then reinstall, and then the removal
failed!
