Doesn't cupsd do it's own logrotating. Looking in /etc/logrotate.conf
I have:
# see "man logrotate" for details
# rotate log files weekly
weekly

# keep 4 weeks worth of backlogs
rotate 4

# create new (empty) log files after rotating old ones
create

# uncomment this if you want your log files compressed
#compress

# packages drop log rotation information into this directory
include /etc/logrotate.d

# no packages own wtmp, or btmp -- we'll rotate them here
/var/log/wtmp {
    missingok
    monthly
    create 0664 root utmp
    rotate 1
}

/var/log/btmp {
    missingok
    monthly
    create 0664 root utmp
    rotate 1
}

which suggests it ain't lookin' in /var/log/cups/

Indeed, considering MaxLogSize can be set to 0 bytes in
/etc/cups/cupsd.conf implies no rotating will occur, see man cupsd.conf.
