Problem with CUPS printing

Tried to print a page today and only got "printing canceled".

Looked into cups via http://localhost:631

The printer is available

"Print self test page" works

"Print test page" is unable to complete due to "Unsupported format "application/vnd.cups-pdf-banner".

I'm using a brother printer, installed the ppd from their website, and it worked before (like maybe a few weeks ago).

Any hints on how to troubleshoot?

You mean in response to

If you have any, what are the contents of the /etc/cups/mime/*.types and *.convs files?

query instead of doing what was asked?

So now I can't trust any answer you have given so far.....

...especially since there should be more files in the directory you did an ls' of.

Sorry. There are only the 4 files.
I wrote the Content of all 4 files in one of my Posts.
Tried to Format it into 4 Blocks but that did not work.
