Yep, it's the SNMP portion of it.  I made a really simple PPD and filter

PPD:
*PPD-Adobe: "4.3"
*%
*% Dummy PPD
*%
*FormatVersion: "4.3"
*FileVersion:   "1.1"
*LanguageVersion: English
*LanguageEncoding: ISOLatin1
*PCFileName:    "dummy.ppd"
*Manufacturer:  "Test"
*Product:       "(SNMPOFF)"
*cupsFilter:    "text/plain 0 dummy"
*cupsSNMPSupplies: False
*ModelName:     "SNMPOFF"
*ShortNickName: "SNMPOFF"
*NickName:      "SNMPOFF"

Filter
#!/usr/bin/ksh
cat $6

and it printed w/o the delay.

So with 1.4.7 will it be a param to turn it off at the system level so I don't need to marry it up to dummy PPD files?  Also if you know about the IE Portion (last post) that will help me with my migration.  Thanks Much!
