Hi Russell, Sorry. I should have written back. I solved it this afternoon by removing the 8859-1 entry from my /etc/locale.gen file, running locale-gen to regenerate the locales, and then restarting cupsd. After doing that it's printing just fine.
I have no idea why the new version of OO should care about this but it does. I did install the binary version. I have enough code to build on Gentoo without taking on things like OO which doesn't get used all that much anyway. (At least on my print server) My wife uses it but I keep a copy locally to work on fixing stuff like this. Anyway, problem solved.
