I gave up trying. Well, I tried again..now months later..and guess what, it works but *only* if the printer is plugged into the USB port and turned on at the time you boot the machine. If you turn it on later, things get queued for mail, but never printed until after a reboot...previously things got queued and then disappeared from the queue as though they had been printed.
