    Adding a Network printer

    Hi there,
    I have a printer (brother MFC440-cn) attached to my local switch with the IP of 192.168.1.64. It is its own print server and in windows I simple add an IP:192.168.1.64 port in order to get it to work.
    I have absolutely no idea of how to add it in linux. I've have a look and there are cups drivers available, but as I understand CUPs acts as a server for local printers.
    Had a real root around in forums for ideas, but most tend to be aimed at using it attached to a usb interface. I've run the brother download, which did add it, but gives the location as /dev/usb. Tried changing this tp lpp:192.168.1.64 but no luck.

    So any help would be much appreciated.
