Yeah, the invalid option error from CUPS is probably a driver mis-match or it's
attempting to create a PPD for a driverless selection and for whatever reason,
was unable to determine or reconcile one or more printer options.  I've also
seen this error occur when attempting to configure a printer for IPP that is
not IPP-capable (clearly,  yours is).

lol, yeah probably more than you want to know.

I'll say I'm kind of lost with the time-sequence with a laptop, a desktop, an
old OS and new OS, this is or that's not working, it's hard for me to follow. 
Are you saying that you now have a working config for the printer and that you
had to use the CUPS web-gui to configure?

FWIW, the lpinfo output for your printer, both directly connected and
discovered via IPP on the network, looks perfectly normal.
