I don't know what your requirements are but have you considered cups?
The packages you'll want are cupsys and foomatic-db there will be some
dependencies that apt will solve. Configure via QT-Cups or the web
interface.
For lpr you'll want lprng then I find printtool useful to configure
(if you have a GUI)
