I appreciate the effort.  It's just not worth it.  I think it is a problem
with the newer debian kernel package.  Using an older kernel made printing
possible, and that will do for now.  I think that the problem had
something to do with the 'lp' module, but I will probably never know,
because I will never install that kernel version again.  daveA
