Guys,
I have had some success. I downloaded espgs from CVS, did a makesrcdist 
and replaced my source tarball in 
/var/spool/sorcery/esgps-7.05.5xxxxxxxx. I then compiled and 
installed(cast -r -c on our systems). All went ok. I had installed the 
Omni tarball previously.

I then did "lpr simple.txt" and lo and behold I got a printout!!!!!! 
Feeling real good now I went into kde's print manager to try the 'print 
a test page' in cups. Bummer, I got the following out of prnlog:

foomatic-gswrapper: gs '-dSAFER' '-dBATCH' '-dNOPAUSE'

Does this imply these fonts come(should come) with ghostscript or what? 
If not from ghostscript, where? Is this cups test print program wanting 
the fonts, or who? I did an update to cups-1.1.17, our latest. Boy this 
is tricky stuff. Can you guys shed any light here?
Thanks,
