Mine works fine with these CUPS settings on my WLAN:

Name: Brother_MFC-L2740DW
Description: Brother MFC-L2740DW
Driver: Generic PCL 6/PCL XL Printer Foomatic/pxlcolor (recommended)
After configuration, the CUPS page reads:
Description:    Brother MFC-L2740DW
Location: Driver:    Generic PCL 6/PCL XL Printer Foomatic/pxlcolor (recommended) (color, 2-sided printing)

  hi,
  I don't see any way to configure these settings, either with
  system-config-printer or http://localhost:631/admin/

I use <http://localhost:631/admin/>. I see an "Add Printer" and a "Manage Printers" button. I can click "Manage Printers" and select the printer. I can select "Administration" / "Modify Printer" in the dropdown menu, and am prompted for my local username and password. The Defaults settings above were added automatically when I added the printer; I included them for completeness.

Are you in the cups group?

  Can you tell me how you do that, and what do you mean by "CUPS page"?

The printer information page. In my case:
http://localhost:631/printers/Brother_MFC-L2740DW

Kind regards,
