wadesmart at wadesmart:~$ cat /usr/share/cups/data/testprint.ps | nc 
192.168.1.80 9100
%%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%%

Device URI: ipp://192.168.1.80:9100/printers/PAL5U006

I can not send a test page.

Right now I have the paper out of the printer because every 30 to 90 
seconds it prints this:

POST /printers/PAL5U006 HTTP/1.1
Content-Length: 303
Content-Type: application/ipp
Host: 192.168.1.80
User-Agnet: CUPS/1.3.7
Expect: 100-continue

And the next line it prints is two lines on top of another maybe three
times. The document I was test printing is still in the queue  for 6min
and is still pending.
