[cups.general] Fedora Core 3 doesn't run cups

[Till Kamppeter]

This is not a problem of CUPS but of the Omni printer driver. IBM's Omni 
is most probably not maintained any more and rather buggy. You should 
better use another driver. The BJ F200 is perhaps the same as a BJ 200. 
So try drivers for the BJ 200. Report your results here.
