'telnet' can be used as a diagnostic tool, not as just a telnet client. The
telnet daemon (telnetd, or in.telnetd) usually only listens to port 23. in
this case, you're not trying 23, you're trying 631. no need for a telnet
daemon. examples:
ssh:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> telnet localhost 22
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to toolbox.
Escape character is '^]'.
SSH-1.99-OpenSSH_3.6.1p2 Debian 1:3.6.1p2-4
smtp:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> telnet localhost 25
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to toolbox.
Escape character is '^]'.

etc etc....
