That's what I have it set to (although some automatic 
printer configuration tool set the printer to /dev/lp0, 
perhaps because I have a parallel port ZIP drive hooked up 
to the parallel port).

I cannot even get the printer to work if I do this:

cat testfile.txt > /dev/usb/lp0

Nothing happens at all.

The printer worked fine as USB from Windows2000.  I've 
changed nothing since I switched over to Linux.

Perhaps I could use something other than printconf-gui?  
What could make the USB port unuseable?
