I installed cups package on my headless GuixSD server. lpr works fine as
long as the config is specified on the command line,e.g.,
/run/current-system/profile/bin/lpr -H 192.168.1.6 -P C5200n
I don't need cupsd for my purposes, but I looked at it a bit. Notes on
what I discovered on the chance it could be useful to others...

This is because the cups-files.conf file contains the line ...
SystemGroup lpadmin sys system root
... w/ groups that don't exist.

Things I did ...
cp -R /gnu/store/1mffhgz5xdrn3ylb5hfqx3vq45jqf8q1-cups-minimal-2.1.0/etc/cups /etc
### replace "/gnu/store/1mffhgz5xdrn3ylb5hfqx3vq45jqf8q1-cups-minimal-2.1.0" with ""
### in
### /etc/cups/cupsd.conf &
### /etc/cups/cups-files.conf
mkdir /var/log/cups
### remove unknown Groups from /etc/cups/cupsd.conf
cupsd -t -f -c /etc/cups/cupsd.conf
"/etc/cups/cups-files.conf" is OK.
"/etc/cups/cupsd.conf" is OK.
cupsd -f -c /etc/cups/cupsd.conf
### produced the attached /var/log/cups/error_log
The bottom line is that it looks to me like this might work if the
--localstatedir=/var problem is fixed.
