I assume everything else in the /etc/rc.conf file is working, so
it isn't like "rc" is not working.  I assume that when you start
lpd by hand, you log in as root and type:
     /usr/sbin/lpd -p
right?

I don't know what would cause this (but then I am not running
stable as much these days).  Look for error messages from lpd
in /var/log/lpd-errs or in /var/log/messages.  Try adding a
'-l' (lowercase L, for "logging") to the lpd_flags.  See if
that helps.
