Thanks. The log file gave me a clue with read failures for:
/usr/local/Brother/Printer/MFC7360N/inf/brMFC7360Nrc
which was set 600 lp lp but needs 660 lp lp. That change enabled ASCII and
Postscript printing.
I'm currently USB connected while I'd prefer to use ethernet.
You first need to connect your printer to your network, then point cups
to that printer.
But at least I can print. The print file name has changed to root@debian-13+<job

This is where an O'Reilly book on CUPS would be helpful. I'm trying to setup a
spare machine to give to a friend as I shrink my network of test machines in
favor of VMs.
How is your network topology related to your question.
I have a python script on the system I upgraded from 10 to 12 for configuring the printer
under "Administration" but can find no similar tool on 13. How do I install
it?
Add the printer using Cups's web interface, see above.
Where is this Python SCR coming from?
Just configure Cups using the GUI at https://localhost:631.
