+This printing stuff is really causing me problems. :) This one
+should be easier to answer (hopefully) than my previously mentioned
+one.

+For some reason, lp can only access (and hence print) files that are
+world readable. How can this be remedied?

Use input redirection ( < ).

`lp' is another uid.  It should only be able to read world readable files.
It can spool stdin.
