For me strange things happen:

The commands for doing the ownership/permission change are executed, but
immediately afterwards the ownerships are back to the wrong values. When
is the CUPS daemon started? Before or after correcting the ownerships?
Perhaps the CUPS daemon sets them to root.lp before it drops its
privileges.
Perhaps we need to patch the CUPS daemon to get the right thing.
I have tested on current Edgy (cupsys 1.2.4-2ubuntu3).
