   I have and use a Brother HL-2270DW which is the older version of your   
   printer, the HL-L2370.  I use mine as a network printer and I have no   
   problems with it.  Here are my notes for installing as a network printer   
   (if this doesn't help, maybe it will give you some  ideas):   
      
   * Install the printer:   
      - select Settings->Printers   
      - click 'Add' to add a printer.   
      
      - under 'Network Printer',   
        click on 'Find Network Printer'   
      - on right side, type in the 'Host:' field   
         Host: HL2270DW.test   
         press 'Find'   
      
      - on right side check that   
         Host: HL2270DW.test   
         Port number: 9100   
        then   
         press 'Forward'.   
      
      - check everything looks okay...   
      - click on 'Apply'.   
      
      - select  'Print Test Page'   
      - if successful, a message box appears that says 'Submitted'   
      - click 'OK'   
      
   * Printer is successfully installed!
