Public bug reported: I am now unable to print any documents to a Brother MFC-410CN printer, attached via the network.
This problem presumably surfaced during a past software upgrade, but I don't know precisely when. Opening the system-config-printer-gnome tool, the printer is shown with a red exclamation symbol on its icon. The attached screen shot shows the ink levels as reported by (presumably) CUPS. If I attempt to print a document, the document enters and exits the printer queue and no job errors are reported, but the document doesn't print. The printer itself reports all four ink tanks as close to full, and it is possible to print test pages from the printer. These test pages prove the presence of ink in all four tanks.
