Cautionary tale: what to blame?



I was all ready to write to the list asking if there were any problems in
Etch's CUPS or HPIOD support, because suddenly I couldn't print to my
Laserjet.  I could see the jobs stacking up in the queue, but they didn't
print.

Then I noticed that my USB hub didn't have a green light for the printer. 
Plugging the printer directly into the PC caused all the jobs to spew right
out.

Moral: check the connections first.
