It looks like a very recent cups update has tightened acceptable contents of /etc/cups/cupsd.conf.
In my case, the offensive lines are:
JobPrivateAccess default
JopPrivateValues default
SubscriptionPrivateAccess default
SubscriptionPrivateValues default
These appear at the end of the file. Other copies of similar lines appear within sections of the file, such as < Policy<Policy authentication>.
Only the orphan lines at the end were offensive to
cupsd -t
Once converted to comments, printing is now working
