OK. I'm back. $ chkconfig --del ct_sync did the trick. Why ct_sync was ever in the list is beyond me. My suspicion: it was stuck to the bottom of a shoe of some RPM that was installed last week. Also: $ chkconfig --del oki4daemon .... which I also think was stuck to the bottom a shoe of some RPM that was installed last week. I know it was not there after the MDV 2008 install, and, indeed, all the printers around here are HP LJ's.
