Hi Wade,
this is what happes:

[root@localhost par]# /sbin/service cups restart
Stopping cups:                                             [  OK  ]
Starting cups:                                             [  OK  ]

No clue - it seems.

Do you get an error when you run /sbin/service cups restart?  Check
/var/log/messages.  On one of my computers, I am getting an error
about can't read cupsd.conf and the printer daemon is not starting
(see my other posting).  I can start cupsd manually, however.

Karl,
thank you. The problem is that I did remove the printer, then I added it
again, but it still could not get in contact with CUPS.
No printing takes effect, not only the testpage.
I also have trouble starting system-config-printer, and any efforts to
do printer management is rejected. So I wonder if there is something
wrong with my CUPS, but I have never done any installation or
configuration of CUPS before, so there I am a novice.

After a long period of smooth sailing I suddenly encountered a CUPS
problem.
Why I have got it is uncertain, maybe as a result of a yum upgrade
run. I had to reinstall FC 5 due to some disk trouble (possibly
because a blown fuse cut the electricity supply to my desk)
so I imagined that I would be interested in upgraded programs since I
burned the FC5 distro.

I remove and reinstall the printer (which btw. is online, lights are
up :-) ) and when sending a testpage to the printer i get the
following message:

"There was a problem sending CUPS test page to laser1 queue (my
chosen printer name)

/usr/bin/lpr  connection refused

The following daemons are running:
cupsd
cups-config-daemon

I would be grateful to receive some help on this one.

   I had a problem like that. I had to delete the printer from the
printer setup program and then re-load it with the same name and so
forth. It fixed the problem.
