Please don't top post.

You have created a port xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx on w2k3 with a queue
name of HPlaserJ ?

make sure cupsd is not running. 

the above lpq tells me there is no lpd running on
your FBSD box, that needs to be started.
echo lpd_enable='"YES"' >> /etc/rc.conf for startup on reboot
/usr/local/sbin/lpc to view the status of printers and stop/start
the lpd.

If this is a HP laserjet you will have little difficulty
getting things to work.
