/etc/cups/printers.conf had "AllowUser All".  I thought that was good 
enough.  After many vain attempts at reconfiguring, I was willing to take 
a stab at anything.  So, I ran:

lpadmin -p ps1 -u allow:root,edj, <added all other users here>

That is, I added every user manually, rather than relying on "All". That 
did it.  Humming along perfectly now.  Go figure.  Whoever is not listed 
will not print, even root.

Port 631 is open and listening; why the 404??  Where can I get myself acces 
to my printer??  Thanks for any help.
