I placed the ppd in /usy/share/cups/model and the print tool found it
and I was able to print a test page.

I wanted to test it with gedit but didn't find the printer listed. After
investigating I found the cups daemon not running and I was not able to
start it manually. I went back to the print tool and my printer was
gone.

Whats up with cups?
