David thanks for the great link and advice. 

I will reset world with command?      'chown root:root brfaxfilter'  

I will then     'chmod go+x'

????

Can you please recommend which area of the link you sent I should possibly follow? 

There are chmod 555 and 700 's etc making me confused.  

I will restart 'cups' using the command 'sudo service cups restart'

Thanks alot for your help with this.

Also - you probably have to restart CUPS to have it re-read the library.

Paul - again, there's no reason for world permissions to be anything. Anyone authorized to use the service should be in the same group as the service.

I am using a majic jack based telephone line system 'VOIP',

I have adjusted the MFC-295CN to 9600 baud rate 'fax',




I do of course have a high speed ethernet connection,

Your help is always appreciated.

Thank you for your time,

I just preformed a 'chmod' command and permissions NOW look like this for the file:

located under: deb at deb-desktop /usr/lib/cups/filter $ 

-rwxrw-rw-  1 root deb  5.2K Nov 24  2005 brfaxfilter




command I entered was:

sudo chmod go-x  brfaxfilter

to remove execute.
 
rebooted the machine same thing still shows up in Cups.

ls -l of /usr/lib/cups/filter/brfaxfilter 




Looks like you have a sticky bit set and have it 'rwx' for all. It really only probably needs to be 'rw-' for owner and group, and then any user who is allowed to use it  should be in that group. There should be no need for a sticky bit to be set.
