That's weird... I don't have any of these. No udev-configure-printer,
configure-printer@.service... nothing like that. Where did all of these
come from?
Other than that, I have the more or less standard configuration for the
printer in cups, but that should not make much of a difference.
A quick test... you are member of the `lp` group, aren't you?
Another one... something strange in `dmesg`?
