Thanks for the suggestions.
With the help of the directions here:
https://www.itg.ias.edu/content/connect-network-printer-lpr-windows10
I was able to set up a printer port that works with /usr/bin/lpr -d
PORT_NAME some_file.txt
No idea why the normal Windows printer did not work, as that has worked
in the past.
