<sigh> Once again I forgot my number-one fallback move:  I always delete
all the existing printer devices after upgrading cups (or hplip) and run
hp-setup to reinstall them.  It has fixed many similar printing mysteries
for me in the past.

If in doubt, back up all of your cups configuration files first :)
