Here is the output from the error_log

I [22/Apr/2003:14:26:45 -0400] Job 5 queued on 'Q2' by 'root'.
I [22/Apr/2003:14:26:45 -0400] Started filter /usr/lib/cups/filter/pstops (PID 28123) for job 5.
I [22/Apr/2003:14:26:45 -0400] Started filter /usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip (PID 28124) for job 5.
I [22/Apr/2003:14:26:45 -0400] Started backend /usr/lib/cups/backend/socket (PID 28125) for job 5.


When I issue the tail -f /var/log/spooler command and submit a job, nothing appears in the spooler.  But when I go to the cups www admin tool and
look under "completed jobs" it lists every job I have submitted and shows the status as completed.  Again, noting comes out of the printer.  I have no
idea where the output is going...

The printer does have postscript installed but I typically just use PCL5 drivers.
