Are SCSI printers supported under FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE at all?

My printer is a NeXT Color Printer, the only device in the chain,
terminated. The SCSI controller is a Symbios (previously NCR) 53C810. The
box itself is a DECpc XL 560 with Pentium 60, 32M RAM, 510M hd and v1.03
of Phoenix BIOS. Other SCSI devices work properly when hooked to the same
box. The following is a segment of my dmesg output, if that helps.

pcib0: <Host to PCI bridge> on motherboard
pci0: <PCI bus> on pcib0
ncr0: <ncr 53c810 fast10 scsi> port 0xd100-0xd1ff mem
0x20000000-0x200000ff irq$
ncr0: driver is using old-style compatability shims
isab0: <Intel 82378IB PCI to ISA bridge> at device 2.0 on pci0
isa0: <ISA bus> on isab0
pci0: <S3 928 graphics accelerator> at 6.0
de0: <Digital 21040 Ethernet> irq 119 at device 7.0 on pci0
de0: driver is using old-style compatability shims

After that, devices pass0 through pass7 show up as being at ncr0 bus 0
target 3 lun X, where X is from 0 to 7. Again, the chain IS terminated,
the SCSI ID is selected in the printer's menu.

Any ideas, suggestions, donations of sledgehammers would be greately
appreciated.
