John, it is a Brother DCP7065DN, on the hardwired network and visible to
all the computers here.
Actually, I just installed Mate (can't stand that Gnome-thing) but neither

Barry, I'll check into lpadmin. Still, I'd think there would be
something
actually visible in one of the menus, and as far as I can see there isn't.
