You might actually have something wrong with the hardware interface or the
bios could be confused.
As root, ( and if your printer can handle ascii) send something directly
to the port, eg:
ls -la > /dev/lp0
and try it for all of the ports, and see if your printer responds
correctly.
If it does, you can eliminate the hardware as a problem, and look at the
networking.
try netstat -l and see if the lpd is listening on one of the unix sockets
