After a month of intermittant struggle. I have
my computer printing.
The story of how I discovered this is here:
http://www.onr.com/user/tbodine/AAlinux.htm
I have a 2.4.19 kernel running. The config file from
the source directory is here.

I have CUUPS to manage my printers
You can get the following from linuxprinting.org
I downloaded pnm2ppa to use with ghostscript to make
the printer print.
I found the PPD at
http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_driver.cgi?driver=pnm2ppa
I found cupsomatic at
http://www.linuxprinting.org/cups-doc.html which has a
link buried near the top which points to the actual
cupsomatic script
I put cupsomatic from www.linuxprinting.org in
/usr/lib/cups/filter/cupsomatic.
I put the PPD in
/usr/share/cups/model/HP-DeskJet_710C-pnm2ppa.ppd.
I browsed to http://localhost:631 to talk to CUUPS and
added my printer
I found a postscript file to print and printed it.
