I've fixed my problem... It appears to be only a kde thing. I was able to print from kde by enabling "Ghostscript Prefiltering: Convert to PS Level 2" under the Properties->Advanced kprint menu. I'm not sure why I have to do this or what kde sends to my printer by default. If any body has a better understanding of this, I would sure be interested.
