you can see which package provides a file with dpkg-query:
dpkg-query -S `which lpr`
will show you the package, unless you have it installed some other way.
if you need to find a file which is a part of a package you can use apt-file
apt-file update
apt-file search -x "\/lpr$"
will show you packages containing lpr pattern
-x flag tells apt-file to use perl like regular expressions
