(Oh, my test page just came out almost 100% black. Still tweaking...)
I re-added my HP network laser printer to find that hplip didn't work with the new cups package.
Using the default driver from the cups interface resulted in a lot of extra black where the page should have been blank. Manually re-adding the printer using the driver hplip was trying to use resulted in a properly working printer.
I had the same problem (extra black page when printing), and i got it fixed by installing the latest hplip and then re-adding the printer again through CUPS web page.
I found some patches for the gcc to fix compiling the version in --current we had last week. I put that back in for now. I sent Mr. V the patches just in case. I have my network printer working now on --current (at latest packages) as of tonight.

have you tried to remove your printer and re-adding it again?
My printer at the office is HP LaserJet 1300 and it worked again after i deleted the printer from CUPS Web admin and re-add it again
