Ubuntu MATE 16.04.2 for Raspberry Pi 2 and Raspberry Pi 3

Edit the file: /etc/modules-load.d/cups-filters.conf

Make it look like this:

# Parallel printer driver modules loading for cups
# LOAD_LP_MODULE was 'yes' in /etc/default/cups
#lp
#ppdev
#parport_pc

Also, edit the file: /etc/default/cups

Make it look like this:

# do not load parallel port modules
LOAD_LP_MODULES="no"

Reboot your system, and the errors should be suppressed.
