This problem probably is a result of the modifications in 
src/winsup/cywin/path.cc introduced in version 3.373.

lpr.exe uses cygwin_conv_to_win32_path() which now is forced to check 
for non-absolute pathnames only:

version 1.373:
path_conv p (path, PC_SYM_FOLLOW | PC_NO_ACCESS_CHECK | PC_NOFULL);

version 1.372:
path_conv p (path, PC_SYM_FOLLOW | PC_NO_ACCESS_CHECK);

lpr.exe probably should use cygwin_conv_to_full_win32_path() for a 
remote printer (and a local printer too?).

Tim
