The class was enabled. The problem seems to have been that the first 
printer I added to create the class somehow didn't end up in the class. 
The second printer I added did make it into the class while the third (a 
Canon) didn't have open source drivers and the Canon installer didn't 
actually create a working printer.

Once I re-added the first printer, deleted the Canon printer and 
reinstalled it using the CUPS interface, I had a working printer class.
