Here's the problem.  Use this instead:
            :[EMAIL PROTECTED]:\

The thing that listens on port 515 is an lpd emulator.  It expects you to 
be sending print jobs according to the RFC 1179 protocol.  The notation 
lp=host%port doesn't use the RFC 1179 protocol, it just sends your print 
job directly to that port.

The notation [EMAIL PROTECTED] does use the RCF 1179 protocol.
