Please post that user's ~/.lpoptions file. Also, specify what permissions that 
file has.

This another PC works fine for the user which has the error on the first PC? 
If yes, is its account shared from a server by NFS?

Was this upgrade on the PC or on the print server? Or both?

You migh want to look at configuration files in /etc/cups. E.g. client.conf on 
the client PC and printers.conf, cupsdconf on the server PC.
