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

[root at saturn cups]# netstat -tulpn | grep :631
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:631         0.0.0.0:*  LISTEN      16044/cupsd
tcp        0      0 192.168.0.101:631     0.0.0.0:*  LISTEN      16044/cupsd

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 at pluto ~]# netstat -tulpn | grep :631
tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:631   0.0.0.0:*  LISTEN    1793/cupsd
tcp        0      0 :::631        :::*       LISTEN    1793/cupsd
udp        0      0 0.0.0.0:631   0.0.0.0:*            1793/cupsd

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

[root at pluto ~]# lpstat

hp1320-saturn-5 root    1024   Tue 04 Sep 2007 09:38:23 PM EDT

I'm stumped. Anyone know what I should do or what else I can do to get 
more info?

TIA
