Help with CUPS

Howdy List,

I've just added a FreeBSD 5.2 partition to my debian sid print server and I'm 
groping around trying to make it functional.

/dev/lpt0 works with a cat something.txt > /dev/lpt0 and adding CUPS from 
ports seemed to work as well. I can access the web interface or add printers 
from the command-line...but they don't print anything. 

The web interface shows print jobs as aborted. /var/spool/cups shows a 
corresponding file for each submitted job.

Thanks in advance for any help. Googling has revealed nothing of any 
assistance.
