>Read the man pages? This is correct. Have a look at 'man lpq' (your original command): DESCRIPTION lpq examines the spooling area used by lpd(8) for printing files on the line printer, and reports the status of the specified jobs or all jobs associated with a user. Etcetera ... You guessed it, go to 'man lpd': DESCRIPTION lpd is the line printer daemon (spool area handler) and is normally in- voked at boot time from the rc(8) file. Etcetera ... Therefore, look at 'man rc'. Coincidentally lpd is the provided sample: CONFIGURATION EXAMPLES The rc.conf(8) file etcetera ... For example, the lpd(8) daemon is controlled by the following line: lpd_flags=NO # for normal use: "" (or "-l" for debugging) This does not start lpd(8) at system startup. To start lpd(8), the fol- lowing entry can be used: lpd_flags="" # for normal use: "" (or "-l" for debugging) Alternately, lpd(8) can be started with the -l flag (to log remote con- nections): lpd_flags="-l" # for normal use: "" (or "-l" for debugging) I don't print but I suspect that your problem is your rc.conf(.local). # cat rc.conf | grep lpd lpd_flags=NO # for normal use: "" (or "-l" for debugging) Have a look there for starters. Best wishes.
