Exclamation installing a network printer using cups

Hi,
I am using OS Fedora 6
I have downloaded and installed lpr driver and cupswrapper driver from brother website. I then used:
http://localhost:631 to access the CUPS server to check and configure my system. Below is the CUPS server configuration i have but i am not able to print.
Description: HL2070N
Location: alino
Make and Model: Brother HL2070N for CUPS
Printer State: idle, accepting jobs, published.
Device URI: lpd://192.168.0.100/binary_p1

Do i have to create the cups and filter folders?
What else can i do?

Can someone help me!

Thanks.

Alain

I use socket://<ipaddress>

If the IP address is the printer itself, you don't need the printer name either.
For example, my Device URI just reads socket://192.168.1.70
