I found with some HP inkjet printer that I ended up not being able to print from web browsers, if I set things up that way. It'd bomb out with a useless error message (you might want to check why it aborted). Though, when set up via the Gnome tool, all was well. Also, I noticed the difference between the test pages between being set up one way or the other. The CUPS test page you'd get once set up via the Gnome tool, however you initiated printing the test page (via that tool, or the CUPS local webserver), had finer detail in the colours and grayscales, and was a slightly different sized page. -- (Currently running FC4, occasionally trying FC5.)
