Uh...  This is what happens when you do 48 things at once. :-)

Sorry.  I tried the ipptest with the cancel.  It didn't do anything.  I stopped cupsd, changed it to 2, restarted, and did the ipptest again.  The reason I still told it to remove 1 is because I was still getting the printer-state-changes, vs printer-stopped.

I'll try it once more using the existing ID number.  What else can I do with the subscriptions through this?  Can I modify them by adding or removing (or showing) the events?

I didn't think I should get these types of messages for just printer-stopped:

Subject: [cups-status] Printer: plotter-37 processing
Printer "plotter-37" state changed.

Subject: [cups-status] Printer: plotter-37 idle
Printer "plotter-37" state changed.

I did expect to get these:

Subject: [cups-status] Printer: plotter-39 stopped
Printer "plotter-39" state changed.

Is there no separation of these events?
