Ok, I've just gone throug the (rather short) session of seting up a printer (my old Apollo 2600). Well, ran into a few problems (first one being my system didn't recognize it when it was plugged into my box. Works in my USB HUB, though).

Ran through, and got it configured and all. Now my problem is - it won't print. I ran through and found the right ppd file to set it up with (btw, do I need to move this to a special dir? Don't think I should, but I'm just asking), but now it won't print.

my grep "error" /var/log/cups/error_log reads:

Well, I went through and set the default printer (you would think CUPS would be smart enough to know "Hey, this lonely, single printer might be the default"), but that hasn't helped any. Honestly, I don't know much on what I would need to do to troubleshoot this (last time I installed a printer it was in SuSe 9.3, and it handled it for me).

Some info on how to fix this would be nice.

Ok. I think I've gotten this thing to work somewhat. Few problems that I've run into - it won't print, but just runs paper on and on and on through the printer a few times before the error light starts blinking (sometimes I hate that light. Its like the Check Engine light - who's bright idea was it to put that in there?)

I'm going back through and trying to setup the cups w/ ppds (removed it to try and get my printer to work. I think now I just missed a step in the system)
