[Casper] JSS user reporting user as admin dscl says no?

[Ryan Harter]

_lpadmin is the CUPS account that correlates to the lpadmin command  
you find in the terminal.  I can't tell you why this account is  
showing up twice, but since it is a member for the staff group that  
should make it admin.  Our local amdinistrator account is uid=501(adm)  
gid=20(staff) ...

AFAIK the user is not directly a member of the admin group, but staff  
is, so it's like embedded groups.
