Did you happen to check /usr/bin/ to see if lp, lpq, lpr, and lprm are there? 
If they are, you need to either remove them or rename them. Cups installs 
these in /usr/local/bin and since it's later in the path, they're never used.

I just did what you told me but I still get the same message when run lpstat, and still can't print.
