I wonder if you have really solved the problem.
in my experience changing printing permissions will be a disaster.

I also had problems to print from a LTSP-PNP fat-client (version
5.5.5-1~bpo8+1).
It turns out that both server and client try to share the same printer ...
I've been able to solve this problem as follows:
1.) Make sure that you are able to use the printer form the server.
2.) On the server: Disable (within CUPS) sharing connected printers
3.) Update your image (or built your client and/or copy /etc/cups)
2.) On the server: Enable (within CUPS) sharing connected printers
5.) Boot and print from the client
