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.
