I finally have printing working.
The necessary permissions for /dev/lpt0 are 0666.
I had to set them using devfs.rules rather than devfs.conf.
I also set EPP mode in BIOS and hint.ppc.o.flags=0x24 in device.hints.
That eliminates the "inetrrupt storm" message.

Also just now got browsing working:

# Show shared printers on the local network.
Browsing On
BrowseAddress 192.168.254.255:631
BrowseOrder allow,deny
BrowseAllow from all

Case closed, many, many thanks to all!
