[cups.general] Cups keeps shutting down queues when user's turn off printer

[Till Kamppeter]

If you do not want to take the risk of using a development version of
CUPS 1.2 and break KDE compatibility, I have written a workaround
against the problem for CUPS 1.1.x. It is beh, the backend error
handler, which makes the behaviour of CUPS in case of backend errors
configurable. Simply go to

http://www.linuxprinting.org/beh.html

and follow the instructions.
