That could be a possibility, although the OP did say

His problem appears to be getting Emacs to communicate with the printing
system rather than the system itself.

Ok.

These directives should be in /etc/cups/cups-files.

root doesn't need to be in SystemGroup. There might be a good reason for
the presence of group gene but I cannot think of one.

The default for Group and User on Debian is lp. gene and sys seem to be
superfluous.

This is almost the standard Wheezy, It will not suffice on Jessie. The
BrowseOrder, BrowseAllow, BrowseAddress and BrowseRemoteProtocols
directives are no longer part of cups. cups also know nothing about
'CUPS'.

dnssd and ethernet ports are unrelated.

Browsing is 'on' by default on Jessie.
