Dear Nigel,

as you don't provide any logs, I can only query my crystal ball [1]. 
I feel that there was some missing cups packages in Debian Sarge that 
lead to printing problems. There are some vibes like those packages 
bear names like gs-esp, escputil, hpijs or cupsys-driver-gutenprint 
[2]. Also there might be problems regarding interfaces (USB?) or rights 
(can root print?)...

Please tell us more ;)

Regards
Ralf
