The existence of a wireless interface on a printer has no bearing on whether it supports AirPrint. Many printers have wireless interfaces and do not support AirPrint. In addition, an AirPrint printer does not need wireless capability on it; it is not a requirement. The only requirement is for the printer to broadcast mDNS. You can see what your printer does by using the novel idea of looking at its manual. Guess what? :) https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT201311 You are the only person in this thread to own up to having an AirPrint Brother printer. That places you in an ideal position to test the ideas proposed in this thread and assist the OP. I'm interested in what avahi-browse -art > discovered gives. Would you please post the output here? A minimum of a Jessie install is needed for something useful.
