Answer : SMTP; 554 5.4.0 Too many Received: headers

Here is a solution that may help someone down the road:

I had a PCI parallel card with me, and the 4250 has a parallel port.  I installed the card, hooked up a parallel cable, and changed the port on the printer properties....and it all works fine.  Nice and fast like it's supposed to.  I don't know WHY, but it now works great.
