I wonder if a double press will home or something like that.

Connect one of these pins to high, 5V, and the firmware should respond.

Attiny2313 Pin 6  -> AT90USB PD4 = PRINTING PIN
Attiny2313 Pin 7  -> AT90USB PD5 = HOMEXY
Attiny2313 Pin 8  -> AT90USB PD6 = PAUSE
Attiny2313 Pin 12 -> AT90USB PD7 = CANCEL

Since the button inputs into the AT90USB chip are controlled by the Attiny chip, presumably there is a way to make that chip take control.  So far, all I've found is the following:

Send command M100, PRINTING_PIN is active, power LED fades
Send command M101, PRINTING_PIN is inactive, power LED is steady
Press power button for <1 second, toggles power LED blinking, unknown other function??
Press power button for >1 second, pauses printing
Press power button for >2 seconds, turns off printer

Lastly, I found the following pins traced on the motherboard, but disabled in the firmware.  Future use?

Attiny2313 Pin 4 -> AT90USB PC1 = U5_EN
Attiny2313 Pin 5 -> AT90USB PC0 = U13_EN
