The message in this port indicates you must recompile your kernel for it to
work.

That is not the experience that I have had with the port, although I had to
bork with the permissions to get it working.  The devfs.rules instructions
were not adequate to make it work.

I under the permissions here are excessive, but it's unclear from the cups
log as how exactly cups is communicating with the printer.

It states the connection is made to
hp:/usb/Deskjet_D1600_series?serial=CN012C90C405CT
