Looking at this...

lpstat is returning what looks to be the right answer in its test
script, but *also* the fact that a job is currently running on
Printer1. That's confusing the test. So... either that job should not
be there and there is another bug (timing? should the job have been
removed earlier?) or the test is too strict here.

LPSTAT Test

    lpstat -H
    FAILED (localhost:8631
Test1-4                 93sam           280576   Sat 12 May 2012 12:24:25 PM UTC)

Looking some more...
