As long as the print server is offering rfc1179 service for the named
queues, it shouldn't matter what it's running (more or less,
non-bsd-ish/non-svr4-ish query output would be a problem). The fact
that you aren't getting any messages after disabling lpsched is
disturbing. lpstat -p should do the following:
1) get list of configured print queues printers(4)/printers.conf(4)
2) walk the list contacting print services for status on each queue.
in your configuration, this would mean using lpd-port to connect to the
print server and syslog messages for it.
Since we are not seeing any, I have to wonder if the list is being
retrieved from printers/printers.conf. I don't
suppose that you could send apptrace output from lpstat -p.
what does lpstat -v report for you?
