lp0 is one of the devices that currently pose some sort of chicken and
egg problem for udev. (see /usr/share/doc/udev/README.Debian.gz) You can
add the lp module to /etc/modules to make sure that the device is
created again on reboot.

There is already a bug report, featuring profanity on both sides:
