Well, I have just found out that a whole line of printers
returns bogus SNMP status.  It appears that the
SNMP status is not updated in a timely manner, and can
be 3-4 seconds out of date with the printer status.

I will be redoing the ifhp code ONCE MORE to handle this case.
Perhaps the truncated ifhp-3.5.12 files were a blessing in
disguise.

ALSO:  if you have a network connection open to certain
printers, the status indicated is 'busy', even if you
are downloading a job.  The status only changes to 'printing'
or whatever, when the rasterizer kicks the paper path
into action.  GRRRHHHH.
