    Probably this means that you have the system lpd running instead of the
    one that lprng presumably wants to run. See if you have a
    lpd_enable="YES" in your /etc/rc.conf.

    Again, probably trying to run the system lpq command (/usr/bin/lpq)
    rather than the one that was installed in a different directory by
    lprng.
