I have a postscript printer on an FC4 parallel port. It works great.
I'm running cups on port 631.

On my new F7 box I configured it to know about the printer using
system-config-printer. The device URI is socket://saturn:631 and cups
is running.
[root@pluto ~]# netstat -tulpn | grep :631

When I print something on the F7 box, nothing happens. Here's lpstat
output:

I'm stumped. Anyone know what I should do or what else I can do to get
more info?
TIA
For several days now I have had to go to CUPS and stop and start the
printer after which it immediately begins printing and works normally
until I shut down and reboot, usually the next morning when I am forced
to go through this routine again. It's a minor annoyance and only needs
doing once so I let it be ...
