And I grepped through both directories mentioned in the comments in that files and couldn't find the module I'm looking for.

Since I shut down the module that was holding the printer, I got an error message that popped up sauing hald wasn't working. Traced that back to a hotplug issue. Found lots of instances (just checked: 35) of /etc/hotplug.d/default/hal.hotplug usb running. Looks like I've got more research to do.
