CUPS sees the printer when It scans for printers but when I tell it to print a test page it is unable to communicate with the printer.
I did print from Windows to be sure that still worked.

CUPS had entered, BRW441CA84A019E as the http address of the printer.
I went to my Belkin router control page searching. On the LAN-DHCP client list I found the IP address AND the printer was listed correctly. This finally got it going.
I entered the correct IP address in CUPS under manage printers, rebooted the printer and the Dell laptop and the printed the CUPS test page.
