I don't think its on the linux side, as that is the server, and PC clients can still print to it.

When it fails, nothing appears in the CUPS log on the server side (CUPS 1.3.10).  On the client side (mac) the printer goes from idle to busy - and the CUPS log shows the job queued.  Nothing happens after that.
