All normal stuff, although they're listening to any address, rather

your LAN, for instance.
I assume you're referring to the lines like this:
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:ipp 0.0.0.0:*
LISTEN root 22447 947/cupsd
That foreign address is just a placeholder. Nothing is actually
connected. The process is listening for a connection and will accept
one from anywhere. It's up to the firewall to restrict that.
