Perhaps RedHat uses management tools of their own that overwrite
every time if you do something  with these tools or when
rebooting .. no idea ...

How long are the entries in /etc/printcap there ??

Or did you forget to use SETUP's <I> option to actually
_install_ the printer.
If you hit Quit too early, no printer gets installed...
