Do you have the package "cupsys-bsd" installed? That was my problem. I
could get a test page to print, but virtually nothing else. If I remember
correctly CUPS and "lpr" are mutually exclusive. To enable the print
functions from Mozilla (et al) you need to mimic (bad word, but the only
one I can think of right now) lpr-ness...which you can do by installing
cupsys-bsd.
Of course if you already have cupsys-bsd installed then I have no idea. :/
