Thank you all. My problem, as you all know, was the URI. I changed to using
parallel:/dev/lpt0 and everything is working great. This is too cool!
Because there wasn't a URI of that type listed on the administration web page,
I didn't think to use something other than what was there.
At any rate, I'm printing from KPDF and it's really cool! Thanks again.
