Wireless Printing on Brother MFC-665CW

Hi, I'm trying to set up my Brother MFC-665CW printer to print on my wireless network, and the first time I did it it worked fine, but then when I went to print a second time (after rebooting my computer) it wouldn't print, and I didn't change any settings manually in between.

When I go to WLAN Status it says it has a strong signal, and when I go to the setup wizard it says it's connected, but then when I go to print it comes up with an error message and won't print.

Any suggestions as to why it's decided to stop printing? When I had a bit of a poke around in the ports, it had USB002 selected. Do I have to change this for it to be wireless? Sorry, completely uninformed question, but I just don't know what could've changed in between it working and not working!

Thanks!

P.S. Sorry, forgot to mention that my OS is Windows XP and that I've gone through the online manual for the printer and adjusted the firewall settings, but still no joy.
