Update:
The only application that does work to this printer is OpenOffice. I chose to 
print its output to a .ps file and saw that it correctly identified the 
language as level 1 and created the postscript file itself. First few lines of 
the file follow:

%!PS-Adobe-3.0
%%BoundingBox: (atend)
%%Creator: (OpenOffice.org 2.4)
%%For: (mike)
%%CreationDate: (Wed Jun 25 22:29:14 2008)
%%Title: (Page243)
%%LanguageLevel: 1
%%DocumentData: Clean7Bit
%%Pages: (atend)
%%PageOrder: Ascend
%%EndComments
%%BeginProlog
%%BeginResource: procset PSPrint-Prolog 1.0 0
/ISO1252Encoding [


I then printed to file from Firefox and discovered that Cairo did the 
formatting and incorrectly identified the language as level 2. First few lines 
of the file follow below:

%!PS-Adobe-3.0
%%Creator: cairo 1.6.0 (http://cairographics.org)
%%CreationDate: Wed Jun 25 22:36:27 2008
%%Pages: 1
%%BoundingBox: 0 0 612 792
%%DocumentData: Clean7Bit
%%LanguageLevel: 2
%%EndComments
%%BeginProlog
/languagelevel where
{ pop languagelevel } { 1 } ifelse
2 lt { /Helvetica findfont 12 scalefont setfont 50 500 moveto
  (This print job requires a PostScript Language Level 2 printer.) show
  showpage quit } if
/q { gsave } bind def
/Q { grestore } bind def


I got the same failures with printing pdf files or files from a text editor. In 
each case Cairo was identified as the creator of the failing postscript 
formated file.

One further point:

I can print to this printer over my home lan using Windows XP from a
laptop. Everything works fine from it no matter what source remotely
selects the printer.

Hope this helps with identifying a solution.
