This message happens when Xprint reads from it records in /var that it has a process running already. Any such processes should have been cleared at with "Stopping Xprint servers: Xprt.", which happened with xprt-xprintorg but not with xprt-common. xprt-common should normally stop the servers too. We'll have to try to understand why it did not. I suspect it will prove to be a transient problem: if you run "/etc/init.d/xprint restart" (or "/etc/init.d/xprint stop" followed by "/etc/init.d/xprint start"), then I expect you will have no problem. I also expect the problem won't happen if you reinstall xprt-common afresh. It would be helpful if you could downgrade to 0.1.0.alpha1-5 and then upgrade again to see if the problem is reproducible.
