Hmm... I'm printing to an HP 8000N here using standard FreeBSD lpr.
Here's a section of my printcap:

lp|hp|printer110:\
        :lp=:rp=printer110:rm=printer110.cl.msu.edu:\
        :sh:mx#0: \
        :sd=/var/spool/printer110:

This spools stuff through printer110.cl.msu.edu to the printer
called printer110.  Not sure if it's the same setup you have, but
it works here... =P
