You can use either of these URIs but stick with the second one (or try
both).

As advised earlier, do

 lpadmin -p test -v <URI> -E -m <PPD>                                                                                  
                                                                                                                       
and print with                                                                                                             
 lp -d test /etc/nsswitch.conf

The point here is that we doing the same thing, which should make it
easier to track down a problem.

If there is no printing (or even if there is) carry out

 cupsfilter -p /etc/cups/test.ppd -m printer/foo -e /etc/nsswitch.conf > outfile 2>log

and look at log for any errors.

Use the web interface or 'lpadmin -x <queue> for this.
