Many thank yous.

My bad...it turns out that the reason I was getting an error from 
papd being unable to register my printer is that i'd inadvertently 
given it the SAME NAME as it has on the appletalk network. in other 
words, i forgot that appletalk is fussy about naming collisions.

Once I renamed it in .paprc everthing is working beautifully again.
