To get an automatic startup for the LBP 2900 I added simply looked in

/etc/udev/rules.d/

and searched for a rule file containing "lp" to indicate there is already something about printers in it.
In this case it was the file

/etc/udev/rules.d/85-hpjl10xx.rules

I simply added after the last line

KERNEL=="lp*", RUN+="/etc/init.d/ccpd restart"

and it works.

Output of /etc/udev/rules.d/85-hpjl10xx.rules
