Is this printer on the network, or a local setup?
If it is on the network -- check if your/it's IP address, etc are configured
correctly. Are you able to access other machines from your machine? Are
other machines able to access the printer?
If it's a local setup == check dmesg for peripheral devices. If it's a
standard printer, FreeBSD might have (hopefully) detected it.
Just guesses. None of these might work out.
