Actually it _does_ work when I use lp or lpr to print a file.
What doesn't work and gives a 'quota limit exceeded' is when I try
to print the test file from the CUPS print test page at
http://localhost:631/printers/.
I reported this in the CUPS mailing list but they don't seem very
responsive.
I set no quota limits in /etc/cups/cups
with the 1 line script:
lpadmin -p dj500 -o job-k-limit=0 -o job-page-limit=0
made entries in /etc/cups/printers.conf to eliminate all quota limits
but is either not working or there is something funny in the CUPS web
page at localhost:631
