... but in case other folks get here , due to google matches.
I suspect the reason CUPS was reporting these messages and failing (and
also testprnt was failing)
was lack of real memory. The print sever is running on a DreamPlug ,
without swap and I think it was
running out f real memory.
Clue was , when restarting cups I was getting "cannot fork" type
message (for KID3) and it really looked like fork(2)
was failing ... ulimit was high ... so my guess was resource consumption
... e.g. memeory.

I guess some better log entries would help ... if that is what is
happening during normal print (not restart)
