Unsupported format "text/plain" -> install cups-filters

THE "MANUAL" IS AT https://support.brother.com/g/s/id/htmldoc/printer/cv_hll2300d/use/manual/index.html#GUID-CF52D2C7-FC76-4D85-94CD-21CAF1981773_159

the printer's 1line UI is surprisingly robust. use the arrows and the OK/back keys

to configure the cups network printer the URL lpd://192.168.50.40/ or ipp://192.168.50.40/ works (with the proper brlaser drivers and stuff installed)
