I just setup my new Epson C62 printer, works great on my freebsd box.
I am using samba to share it with the rest of the family pc's. They
see it in network neighborhood, connect,  install the drivers, all
fine.  but the test page won't print. Nothing appears in the queue
with 'lpc stat all'. In the samba log I get the following error -

printing/print_cups.c:cups_queue_get(731)
  Unable to connect to CUPS server localhost - Connection refused

As I mentioned, I'm using samba, so why am I getting cups errors? How
do I disable cups,  it's not a running process that I can find.
You probably built samba without the magic environment variable
that causes it to skip CUPS.  That probably resulted in CUPS
being installed.

And the error message is because samba is *expecting* to connect to
CUPS, but that is failing.  Thus, there is no CUPS process actually
running.

Re-check what makefile options you have when building the samba port.
