Through previous editions of Fedora and Red Hat I have blundered into

For some reason, now it doesn't. I believed it was a Dlink product,
although all it says on the box is "Model PRS-301PE. I used
system-config-printer and set up an LPR connection using the box's fixed
IP address (of which I am certain) and port number 9100, of which I am
reasonably sure). When I click on the "print test page" box there is no
indication of any kind of error situation, other than nothing happening
with the printer.
Might possibly be a bug in CUPS. Could you file a bugzilla report
please?

As I have said many times don't use system-config-printer to configure a
printer. Use the CUPS web address: localhost:631.
Although in the release notes for FC6 they have finally fixed
system-config-printer. We will have to wait and see.
