I don't know the answer to your actual question.  

But as for ensuring that all the permissions and so forth on all of
the required log, lock, spool etc files, you can use the "checkpc"
command that is part of lprng. By default it just checks the
permissions, but if you give it the -f flag, it will attempt to fix
any problems too.
