What is the IP of the machine on the lan from which you wish to print
to 10.0.0.175?

Add that IP to the section I've snipped above, so that section looks
like this:

<Location />
Order Deny,Allow
Deny From All
Allow From 127.0.0.1
Allow from 10.0.0.X? <--substitute the number for the host for X?

I think that is all you will need to do.

IOW: 10.0.0.X? --> prints to --> 10.0.0.175

Here is why I think this:

<Location />
Order Deny,Allow
Deny From All
Allow From 127.0.0.1 <-- equal to 192.168.1.100
Allow from 192.168.1.102 <-- dual boot w/ KDE Office
</Location>

Printing works fine w/ the dual boot; KDE Office finds the HP just
fine using IPP.

If this doesnt' work, then I dont' know.
