Testparm does not indicate any problem at all, and I can't find any log entry 
that helps.

Running system-config-printer on the server shows the three instances of my 
printer as set up in cups, but none of them are marked for sharing.  
Highlighting the queues in turn, I am not allowed to edit (or delete), it 
seems, and I can't see any way to turn the sharing on without accessing that 
edit screen.  I've also looked at the cups configuration utility (via 
localhost:631) but there is no way there of enabling sharing.

This seems to be the key to the problem.  What do you suggest is the next line 
of investigation?
