1) Set up all your printers on your server.
Then go to the printers control panel (system-config-printer) and select
Server => Settings => [v] Publish shared printers connected to this system.

2) The stock Ubuntu LTSP version is quite broken and old, it won't work.
Use a very recent LTSP version, e.g. LTSP 5.5.5 from the Greek schools PPA:
# add-apt-repository ppa:ts.sch.gr
# apt-get update
# apt-get dist-upgrade
both in the server and in the chroot

3) Don't do anything in lts.conf nor in the chroot cups folder.
Both thin and fat clients will automatically use
   CUPS_SERVER=<server_ip>
and will see all the server's printers without any other configuration, 
without having to add drivers etc.
