i had problem also. able fix adding following lines /etc/init.d/panasoniclpd-init file.

### begin init info # provides:          panasonicmfslpd # required-start:    $all # required-stop: # default-start:     2 3 4 5 # default-stop: # short-description: panasonic scanner driver # description:       panasonic scanner driver ### end init info 

it should this.
