Galen,
Oops! Looking at the cups log completely escaped my attention.

Ectually, there's a write permission issue, but I don't know for whom:
E [15/Sep/2011:08:19:09 -0700] [cups-driverd] Unable to write
"/var/cache/cups/ppds.dat" - Permission denied
Of course, it works for laser5_duplex and laser5_single, but not colorp. I
just changed the permissions on /var/log/cups/ to 777. Will test later.
Thanks for the reminder,
Rich
