After update and a reboot, the cupsd.conf was rewritten, my two lines telling it to listen on Localhost and the IP of the external NIC (tweo LISTEN entries in netstat) replaced with one *:631 line in the config file, and instead of listening one two IPs it now listens and advertised on *;631 (or 0.0.0.0:631 to netstat). Thank you for the thoughts, I am saving them in case I see this again, but I tried a boot off a Live-CD (CF13) and changed the "Localhost" to "*" and reloaded, and that worked as well. About 40% of the tips I save in my notes are things that didn't solve the problem I had at the moment, but were useful against problems I can expect to have in the future.
