When I try to print the single test page with the color wheel and other stuff, the printer takes off to print many pages about CUPS.  I just tried it again and it started to print at start up the same thing it is stuck on.  The first few lines are:

looks to me like you have a post script printer defined and your printer
isn't a post script printer. 

what driver are you using? Run redhat-config-printer and select your
printer and hit the edit button. Then look at the printer driver tab. 
What does that have listed as your printer driver?
