Well, I changed the permissions, and then the owner, but neither
helped. Thanks for trying, anyway. Still get error: 

        lpr: cannot create /var/spool/lpd/lp/.seq
        child process exited abnormally

Here's the present status of lp:

[root@localhost /root]# ls -l /var/spool/lpd | grep lp
drwxrwsr-x    2 lp       lp           2048 Jul 22 11:03 lp
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root            6 Jul 22 10:33 lpd.lock
