Thanks for the tip. What I found was no file being created in qdaemon so I tried creating the queue with another name. Lo and behold it works fine now. I have seen this on three different occasions now where if I remove a queue (say during testing) and then try to add it back in with the same name, it gets its wires crossed up and doesn't work. I can recreate the issue at will. Just create a queue, delete it and re-add it. Sometimes when you do this, lets say you have a custom colon file associated with that queue. Any changes to the virtual printer are not applied. Create a queue with a different name, works fine. I hate things like that.
