SAPlpd has two modes of operation:
As a program that is invoked by the SAPgui and receives requests from
the SAPgui (it may stay around). (I do not know _how_ it receives those
requests.)
As an LPD (line printing daemon), a program that stays around and
listens for print requests on a specific TCP/IP port. Only one program
can listen on that port: it could be your thrid-party LPD or it could
be SAPlpd, but not both.
Now, if you are using "front-end printing", you are using the first
mode.
