Well I had a "Me too" situation here about 10 minutes ago. I'm 
running potato and just noticed that printing does not work 
anymore. It was my first printing try after upgrading from slink
to potato so I was a bit puzzled about it.

However, editing /etc/lpd.perms and commenting out
 DEFAULT REJECT
from the bottom of the file and substituting it with
 DEAULT ACCEPT
gave back all the necessary permissions and now printing works 
again. If you do the same thing does it work for you?
