Upgrading to 1.2.7 - Print jobs stopped

The localhost:631/admin wizard's printers tab says my Samsung ML-2250 is ready to print, but the jobs tab says all jobs are stopped. That's been my situation for a couple of days. I've tried the HP driver that worked before the upgrade and the Samsung driver that is now available with the same result; not sure which one is installed at the moment (it's been a l-o-n-g day).
I tried the KDE ControlCenter Printers wizard, too, with less luck even though that wizard says I'm good to go, too.
Hardware: two year old laptop (1.6G cpu, 2G ram, 60G hd) on a Netgear firewall/router. The printer is connected to the router through a Netgear PS-101 ethernet/parallel port converter.
I suspect a communication problem due to the laptop-router-converter-printer daisy chain but have no idea how to diagnose or fix it.
Software: Upgrading to Knoppix 5.1.1 and Cups 1.2.7 that comes with. Everything else works fine, and printing works fine with Knoppix 3.4 and its version of Cups.
The error_log is on debug2. It cycles through about 550 lines, over and over, but nothing comes out (except as noted) and there have been no errors or warnings.
I do get a single page through the printer once in a while (top left corner, rest blank):
