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.
