I am not sure this is the correct fix, as this does not automatically load the lp module, so you can have the devices, but not the module required to use them. You also get device entries for devices that may not be on your system. The funny part is that before the change to always create them, running "modprobe lp" would give you the lp devices for the ports you actually have on the system, and CUPS would list them when adding a printer.
