Perhaps, I have had too much sun this weekend; but, I am missing
something here.
This is attached to the local system; so, is your "servername" simply
"localhost"?
How do I find the "queuename"?
This printer is NOT listed here:
<http://www.pwg.org/ipp/IPP-Products.html#embedded>
Does this mean that it does NOT support ipp?

Done.

# sudo /usr/lib/cups/backend/scsi

And, yet, dmesg has this:
ieee1394: Node added: ID:BUS[0-00:1023] GUID[000048000034be7b]
ieee1394: Host added: ID:BUS[0-01:1023] GUID[0060b00000186806]

ieee1394: sbp2: Try serialize_io=0 for better performance

I really appreciate your participation in this. All suggestions are
welcome; and will be applied, as I am able.
Thank you.
