The command listed below is from one of the handy script examples included with PrinterSetup <http://www.lucidsystems.org/printingworks/printersetup>

lpstat -p 2> /dev/null | cut -d' ' -f2 | grep -v -e "@" 

The above command will provide a list of print queues configured on the local system. I think this solves part of your problem.
