I returned my inkjet printer to service after some time and hadn't used
this printer with Linux since F7 if not before F7.

In 'Administration => Printing', I can print test page no problem
(obviously as root). But as a user, I get an error that seems to be
authentication but I can't fix it.

cups in LogLevel debug...

and appropriate section of cupsd.conf...

<Location /printers/officejet>
Order Deny,Allow
Deny From All
Allow From 127.0.0.1
Allow From 192.168.2.0
AuthType None
</Location>

which clearly tells me that no authentication should be necessary

How do I fix this?
