[plug] Printer problem (still!)

Despite everyone's best efforts, I am still unable to get my printer to 
work! When I try to print a test PostScipt page I get the following:

Error printing test page to queue lp
Error reason:lpr:connect:connection refused.
Job queued but cannot start daemon.

My printcap file now reads:

lp:\
	:sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp:\
	:mx#0:\
	:sh:\
	:lp=:\
	:If=/var/spool/lpd/lp/filter:


My Edit local Printer window reads:

Names		lp
Spool dir	/var/spool/lpd/lp
File limit	0
Printer device	lp1
Input Filter	*auto*-U-Epson Serial Colour Printer (or something like that!)

Supress Headers is selected.

Can anyone see any possible errors in my settings here?
Any help will be much appreciated.
Regards

Peter


May the great god of Lotto smile kindly upon you.
