[STR Closed w/o Resolution]

644 is the wrong permissions for a directory, and the spool directory MUST
be 710, owned by root with group "lp".  Otherwise you risk exposing print
jobs to all users. This is enforced when the scheduler starts, overriding
any installed permissions, so you probably have a problem with your
cupsd.conf file...

Check the error_log file for messages about fixing permissions on the
spool directory...
