Same printer, not very different AMD64, and based on the hacked ppd 
available on github it worked flawlessly ... I started on 8.6 on this 
one when it was fresh and never got it to work following the same 
procedure.  But localhost:631 worked and the browser hasn't changed much 
(from what I do to it).  I suspect it is running as you say but how do I 
reach it or what is blocking access to it?  Or what do I put in 
host.allow hosts.deny to unblock it if that is the culprit.  And WHY did 
debian change such a thing?  Security security security?  Basic early 
upgrade from stable to testing is the only change that I am responsible 
for.
