       Yeah, I thought of that one. Prints fine locally. I'm still scratching
    my head over *where* cups thinks it is sending this stuff that
    it supposedly printed.... I've watched the activity light on the
    printer, it's not going there so it's not like the printer chokes
    on it and discards it or something.

       And the cups log shows it sent it on to the backend, so
    where the heck did it go?

    [01/Aug/2004:20:01:59 -0700] Adding end banner page "none" to job 37.
    I [01/Aug/2004:20:01:59 -0700] Job 37 queued on 'RawDeskjet' by 'LEGGS51'.
    I [01/Aug/2004:20:01:59 -0700] Started
    backend /usr/lib64/cups/backend/parallel (PID 24337) for job 37.
