SO, suggestions as to what to try next are more than welcome.
The CUPS error log is huge ( I set it to Debug2 ). But, it doesn't tell
me a darn thing; I don't know what to look for.
Try to setup via the webadmin tool (localhost:631).
I have a CX3200 here is my /etc/cups/printers.conf:

It worked flawless for me once I figured out to load the usblp module,
what you already did.

Are you sure about that name?? 'Cause what I get here is:
[11:36:32] bash3 $ sudo modprobe usblp
modprobe: Can't locate module usblp
[11:36:42] bash3 $
That mignt be significant!
