Public bug reported:

For quite some time now CUPS support structured logging to journald, see
http://cyberelk.net/tim/2013/10/25/cups-adding-support-for-system-
journal/

With the move to systemd stack it would be beneficial to switch to cups
logging to journald by default so the additional information could be
stored in structured and secure manner.

The only required change is to replace following lines in /etc/cups
/cups-files.conf:

AccessLog journal
ErrorLog journal
PageLog journal

Users wishing to preserve old behavior with insecure logging would
utilize standard dpkg request about configuration change on upgrade.
