You mention in your original post

"/usr/bin/lpr  connection refused"

I assume you mean by this that if you run lpr by hand you get
"connection refuced"... what happens if you run lpq?  Can you check that
the symlinks go through alternatives like this?

# ll /usr/bin/lpq
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 2007-03-06 08:54 /usr/bin/lpq ->
/etc/alternatives/print-lpq
# ll /etc/alternatives/print-lpq
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 2007-08-21 11:46 /etc/alternatives/print-lpq
-> /usr/bin/lpq.cups
# ll /usr/bin/lpq.cups
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 13820 2007-08-09 16:53 /usr/bin/lpq.cups
