You can't.  LPR (really LPD) is an additional (legacy) protocol you
can support, but you can't opt out of IPP since that is the native
protocol used by CUPS.

You can't.

See my other post for instructions.  If you use
"BrowseLocalProtocols=none" then the queues won't be advertised at all
(but users can still print directly by adding an IP printer)
