cups job hangs "network host 'foo' is busy", looks like gs invocation issue

Here is an excerpt from 'ps auxww':

Note in particular the gs line, in which I see

   -sDeviceModel=HP LaserJet

Call me crazy, but this looks bad.  The unquoted argument
makes me wonder if gs is hanging because it expects 'HP
Laserjet' for the DeviceModel but instead just gets 'HP'.

Could this be the cause of my woes, or am I just likely
screwed up some other way.  CUPS was working for me not too
long ago.  I don't know what has happened.
