I did in fact reinstall (for some reason this mail was stuck
for a day), and the re-installed printer is now working
fine again, but has the exact same ppd file it did before
I recreated it, so I have no idea what changed.

I also got an error popup from system-config-printer
about not being able to find a driver (with a yellow
warning triangle), but a while later, it let me finish
installing the printer and everything worked.

The printer icon shown in s-c-p also has a red circle
with a white minus sign in it down in the lower right
corner - I have no idea what that means.
