Peter, ldap is only required if you are authenticating clients on your LAN/WAN 
using an ldap server.  If you had hundreds of clients and a need to manage 
frequently changing client membership and passwds, then ldap would be 
desirable to manage them effectively.

In your case you just need to control access to your cups server by means of 
the allow/deny wrappers in /etc/cups/conf.d for machines in your LAN and let 
them through the iptables on the server machine.

Increasing the verbosity of the access and error cups logs will show you what 
you need to (re)configure.
