Hi Rich,
Let me boil it down to this line

Maybe this is a network configuration issue rather than one with cups?
When the network is 55.x and up and running, I would look if the
printer's IP has changed. Did LJ5 already have a network connection, or
do you use an IP dongle? For our old printers, I have been using such
dongles (IP to Parallel) for a long time, and I have seen cases where
the IP suddenly changed or was set back.
Hope it helps...
Regards
Rolf
