Not a chance...

because I reverted to distribution version of cupsd.conf and have only 2
printers configured and the configuration is fairly basic.

I put in a bugzilla report.

I know that Tim Waugh usually monitors this list but guess he must be on
a summer vacation because he is the master of all things printers on
RH/Fedora.

We'll get to the bottom of it - and I'm pretty patient and suspect that
Tim will sound off in a few days.
