Is it only me are are you having a little trouble with cups in FD3.

It seems to be if I use two printers that are the same with the same
driver, only one of them is accessible from the network (both work from
the server). If I remove either one of them the other works, with both
on only which ever is first in printers.conf works. Also all other
printers before and after those two work as they should.

I set them up using the cups web interface. Hmmmm, maybe a red herring
here, because I just checked the printers dialog to see what that said
(I've hardly ever been in there) and they is only one of the two in
there. Is this going to be the GUI interfereing with me again. If it is
I'm going to be cross.
