TJ, all your /dev/bus/usb/*/* files including the one for the printer have "vm" group ownerships. Probably VMware or some other virtual machine software is overriding the UDEV rules which set the group ownership of the printer's file to "lp". So HPLIP (the preferred CUPS backend for your printer) cannot access the printer and your job hangs.
