Ooops!  I ended up trying this:
yum downgrade cups cups-devel cups-libs hplip hplip-common hplip-gui 
hplip-libs hpijs libsane-hpaio

Everything downgraded without any dependency issues.  Then I printed the 
file that I first saw this problem on, and it printed perfectly.
So, I am VERY sorry for all of the noise that I added to  this thread...

Of course, it still appears that at least one of the updates that I just 
downgraded broke my printer.  Is anyone else having this issue? and how 
can we figure out WHICH one of the updates broke my printer?
