Hey Peter, I tried the web interface, and that's what's not printing test pages. Do I need to move these execs before I try to print a test page? Also, CUPS seems to have munged up my other printer installations pretty badly, and I don't know what to do to get them back. I guess I'd rather get CUPS working right anyways.
