I just notice when I ask my printer to print a test page nothing
happens. Could somebody shed some light on this problem. There are
no error messages formulated to send in.

What make of printer do you have ?

In the "Printer Properties", the "Printer State" what does it say
there when you try to print Test page ?

Brother MFC-J615W It goes through the gymnastics of printing but never
reach the printer itself. I have un-installed and re-installed and on
a recent thread include the troubleshoot results. Thanks for your
concern and response.

I found these rpms buried on a brother site mfcj280wcupswrapper
mfcj280wlpr after a google search of your model name and ppd 

The mfcj280wlpr is a prereq for the jfcj280wcupswrapper which contains
the ppd file.  I really think that the ppd would be all you would need
just manually specify the ppd file rather than choose the driver.

Also, did you try a generic postscript driver as well?

I go to the brothers website and get the drivers for Linux which have worked until Fedora 16.  The generic drivers don't work. They actually stop working when the last two kernel updates came out. Did you look at the thread I sent with troubleshoot file.
