Well, I scrapped printtool, and reinstalled cupsys, and made the suggested changes.  No go.

There's probably something else that I'm doing incorrectly.

I have a Canon BJC-4000, which uses the cbjc600.ppd driver.  
I have tried to use parallel:/dev/lp0, lpd://localhost/var/spool/lpd, ipp://localhost:631, and a couple of other combinations.
Using the command line does not get me any further than using the web admin tool.

I'm out of ideas.
