That is probably not enough. In addition, you may need to modify your
<Location /printers>.....</Location> section accordingly, or at least 
add the following section:

  <Location /printers/lj015>
  AuthType None
  AuthClass Anonymous
  Order Deny,Allow
  Deny From All
  Allow From 127.0.0.1
  Allow From bwk.aps.uoguelph.ca
  </Location>

Since you have added that printer onto "bwk", I assume that there
is no printer browsing enabled (or posssible) between "apss" and
"bwk"?
