Default Lprng Utility Error Message Complains About Printcap

After using apsfilter to configure a printer, lprm is producing this
error message:

"Error: loop in printcap- brother1440@slipstream.sandgarden.fake ->
brother1440@slipstream"

Googling and perusals of manuals and the lprn and apsfilter sites were
fruitless.

The printer seems to work otherwise. Anyone know what's causing this
error?

Here's the apsfilter-generated printcap:

root@slipstream:~# cat /etc/printcap
# This file was automatically generated by cupsd(8) from the
# /etc/cups/printers.conf file. All changes to this file
# will be lost.
