Ah... I see now that this is Kubuntu 5.x (which shipped a late version of
CUPS 1.1.x).
Check if you can enable
"RunAsUser No"
in cupsd.conf. Then cupsd will run as root (unless Ubuntu/Debian did patch
their cupsys back then also that much).
Also, try to set permissions of the "parallel" binary in
/usr/lib/cups/backend/ to 0700 and ownership "root". In that case the
backend runs as root.
