Did the trick now LPRng can act as a client for CUPS. The nitty-gritty is
the following line in /etc/inetd.conf:

The cups-lpd(8) program provides support for LPD clients. To enable LPD
support on your server, edit
the /etc/inetd.conf file and add a line reading:
printer stream tcp nowait lp /usr/lib/cups/daemon/cups-lpd cups-lpd
The path to the cups-lpd may vary depending on your installation.
Restart inetd and it works as a charm
