Just an additional thought, Bill.

On both my HP 4000 and Canon S450, I had a somewhat similar problem. When I 
first loaded cups in the install, and I asked for a test print, sometimes (2 
out of 6 tries) I would get a blank page printout for the first sheet, and 
then the regular printout. The HP 4000's control panel indicated that it was 
printing from root, whereas the true test page came from /home/andre. I never 
bothered to track this down until I had problems with the Canon jamming on a 
job. I took forever to erase the print queue. I finally found a method that 
corrected my first problem (that extra page) and the job-jamming.

Using Kups-CUPS Administrator, I entered "Properties" and "changed" (actually 
reset the same driver. Solved both problems. 

Might be worth a try - for my part, I can't understand why these oddball 
things happen, but that was an acceptable workaround for me. (Of course, each 
time it happened I would have to re-discover how I fixed it. Finally, I wrote 
it down in my fix-up booklet!)

HTH,
Andre
