Comment 2 Tim Waugh 2006-09-26 16:06:20 UTC 
Perhaps they are being loaded from /var/cache/cups/remote.cache?

..or else, perhaps the 'Browsing Off' line is getting overwritten by
system-config-printer.  The correct way to do what you want in Fedora Core 5 is
to use system-config-printer to adjust the setting.
