I tried all the "sensible" combinations of protocol and uri, to no
avail; none of them worked.  In one or two cases five to seven after I
send a file for printing the "form feed" light on the printer will light
up, but nothing will print.  I tried for fun a few times ten minutes
after that light went on to do a manual form feed.  The printer would
then spew out a single sheet of paper with one line of random characters
at the top.

On the one desktop I have that works, a P4 with Etch, LPD/LPR host or
printer with the lpd URI works as it should.  So something else must be
wrong.
