Good news!  I finally got it all working :)
I installed LPRng, read /usr/local/share/doc/LPRng/index.html, read the manpage 
for checkpc, ran that command a couple of times, changed my path to 
/usr/local/sbin/lp*, then changed my .muttrc file to use /usr/local/bin/lpr and 
all works quite well :)
The html file and checkpc helped a lot.
