the "correct" way to do it is to recreate the printer queues on the DR box ...
an easy way to do it is to just copy /etc/printers.conf, if exists, from the production box to the DR box ...
a non-tested way to do it is to copy everything in /var/spool/lp at a time when the print queues in the production box are empty and then copy those over to the DR box ...
Did you ever obtain any confirmation that copying /var/spool/lp from one system to another will in fact work? I've had some success scripting the movement of printers in the past but my success was limited and problematic. I usually found it easier to just recreate the printers on another system. If this works it would tremendously simplify the issues of DR and printer replication. Thanks for your help.
