I think the :lp=: line is biting you. The following works for me. "rm" 
should be either "raw" or "text". You need the mx# line as the default 
print size limits will easily be exceeded by Netscape when printing 
more than a page or so of graphics.

lp:lp7:Building 7's HP-5M:\
        :rp=raw:\
        :mx#0:\
        :rm=hp-bld7:\
        :sd=/var/spool/output/hp-bld7:\
        :lf=/var/log/lpd-errs:
