Which Debian version?
Which KDE version?
Which CUPS version?
Which HPLIP version?

So you tell us about your "solution" without mentioning what your
"problem" solved by it is? :-)

I don't think your solutions have anything to do with the IPP error
code your $subject mentions.

What are the permissions to those files (and to their parent
directory)?

1. Set "LogLevel debug" in cupsd.conf.
2. Stop cupsd.
3. Make the error_log empty:
su -c "echo > /var/log/cups/error_log"
4. Start cupsd.
5. Print something (better not your password file):
lp -d printername /etc/shadow
6. Analyze every single line of /var/log/cups/error_log
If you don't get a hint from the error_log, try to see if reading
http://www.cups.org/cups-help.html will help you. If it doesn't,
paste the error log to http://cups.pastebin.com/ and tell us the
URL so we can look at it.
Cheers,
Kurt
