Proper star alignment?
As much as I think CUPS is a great system, and I love being able to get
printers for $25, I have found that as time has gone on the entire
system seems a little.. "flaky". Gone are the days of the LJ 2 and 3
that you could drop off a moving cart, plug in, and would still take
jobs from lp print queues no problem. Now printers seem so picky if you
use the wrong paper once you have to power cycle everything just to get
it to work again.
In seriousness, I don't think anyone will be able to tell you why it
worked this time. There were so many suggestions going around and not
like we would know which you did/didn't do. Just accept its working and
DONT TOUCH ANYTHING! :-)
