have you lpd started ? /etc/rc.d/init.d/lpd start ?
maybe lpr -Plp file helps ?
for example, my /etc/printcap  benerated witch printtool looks like:
lp:\
        :sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp:\
        :mx#0:\
        :sh:\
        :if=/var/spool/lpd/lp/filter:\
        :af=/var/spool/lpd/lp/acct:\
        :lp=/dev/null:
but i am using networked printer ;)))
