Able to scan but not print through hpoj

Everyone,

I am running a fully updated Fedora Core 1 machine and am trying to
print to a HP psc1350 using the psc1350.  I have successfully printed to
when not using hpoj, by setting up cups to print to /dev/usb/lp0 using
the PSC 1300 driver.  However, if I do that, I cannot scan.

To that end, I have installed hpoj version 0.90-9 via RPM.  I have set
up the device as the documents in /usr/share/doc/hpoj-0.90 suggest.  I
am able to scan, so I know the device is recognized OK.

I have tried to add the printer to cups through a)redhat-config-printer
and b)the cups web-based interface.  I am unable to print either way. 
When I issue the command "ptal-connect -print" from the command line, I
get the output "ptal-connect: connecting to device
"mlc:usb:hp_psc_1350"...  failed!".

I do not see any error messages in /var/log/messages and do not see any
items in the hpoj documentation's troubleshooting section which seem to
apply to my situation.

I would be grateful for any pointers anyone may have on what the cause
of the problem may be or what further steps I can take to identify it.

Thanks,
