I'm confused because you say the cups clients filter then send the job
as raw.  I assume that the cups clients filter and send the "cooked"
job to the lprng server which should do no more further filtering.

It's pretty simple to do. First setup lprng to talk to the printers
and make sure you can remotely print in lpd.perms. Then tell the cups
clients there is a lpd printer over on that LPRng server...

Make sure lprng configuration doesn't have any filters. If you do
have some clients that need filters then have a raw printer item
that talks to the printer itself and a filtering printer that bounces
the job to the raw printer item.
