my clean dapper on a new laptop was not printing to a gentoo cups server
(hplj4l) that worked fine before (also for osx, winxp, etc.). Problem as
noted above re a few lines of control commands then nothing. My fix
was to enable browsing on client then use one of the browsed printers
for default. I manually setup browsing on my client by modifying
/etc/cups/cups.d/browse.conf:

Browsing On
BrowseProtocols cups
BrowseAddress 192.168.12.255
BrowseShortNames Yes
BrowseAllow All
BrowseDeny None
BrowseInterval 30
BrowseOrder allow,deny
BrowsePort 631

If you use this change the browse address for your network setup.
