Oct 28 was when this machine was upgraded to FC6, and it's been rebooted
several times since then. Looks like cups doesn't clean up after itself.
Before I bugzilla this, can anyone look into their /var/spool/cups to
see if cups cleans up its files?
I have the below and no outstanding print jobs outstanding.
