Check your /var/log/messages
If it says lpd fialed to startup, find out why? As I recall, you said
something about failed to open localhost. I had the same problem (I
was tired and forgot to edit a particular file).
You need to edit your /etc/hosts file and add your local IP adddress
into there. As an example, this is my /etc/hosts file:
128.0.0.1 devil.localdomain localhost
192.168.1.100 devil.localdomain devil
