I should point out that restarting cupsd willy-nilly is *really* bad for
users who print long-running jobs (i.e. lots of copies, lots of pages).
Aborting their job half-way through, then restarting it, means they will
have to check through *all* of the output paper to see what went wrong,
and also that they'll have to chuck a lot of it in the recycling bin.

Even 'service cups reload' suffers from this: cupsd will "put off" a
reload for a while if there is a job running, but only for so long.

If you ever need to restart cupsd, something's wrong.
