FC6 CUPS swallowing my print jobs

Hi folks,
Finally got around to trying to print from FC6.
- fully updated
- open up CUPS via localhost:631
- add an hp lj 1200 that's hooked up on 192.168.1.80 via a (just out of
the box) dlink hard-wired printer server
- send a print job
- the Printers tab of the cups page says
bhp (Default Printer) "Printer busy; will retry in 10 seconds"
and the test page has been in the queue for 15 minutes.
- I've unplugged the print server and the laser (and plugged them back
in <s>) and made sure there weren't any other jobs from the other
machine that I tried this on.
So I'm puzzled why it's just sitting in the queue.
On the print page, it also says:
Printer State: processing, accepting jobs, published
Device URI: http://192.168.1.80
VERY frustrated at what should be an easy gig.
Thanks,
Whil Hentzen
