Yes to both.  Sorry not to mention this right off.  I mentioned this the
first time I attempted to post this message but apparently wasn't yet
fully subscribed and neglected to save myself a copy.

If I save the file as a postscript from the acroread print pop-up
window, I can print the job without a problem from the command line
and, thus, to no surprise, can also correctly display it with gv.
Thus, the job seems to somehow never be making it outside acroread.

In trying to diagnose the problem, I tried using another printer that I
didn't realize hadn't been configured for the system by changing the
printer command to "/usr/bin/lpr -Plex".  I received the same print
error message I would have received from lprng if I had tried this from
the command line yet it was displayed within a pop-up window from
acroread.  So obviously acroread is talking to lprng to some degree.
