Thanks guys for the suggestions. However, it turns out that my printer
decided to go faulty at coincidentally the same time as I installed FC6.
It works for a few minutes, then disappears off the USB horizon. A power
cycle gives it a few more minutes.

Still, it would be nice if CUPS actually gave a *useful* error message for
once in its life :-(
