No device found eventhough LPD is started

LPD is the printer daemon. Its initiation takes place at boot time and gets started during booting of the system. Assume that a printer is connected to the printer port. But a problem may occur when the daemon is started and no device is found.
A configuration problem in the kernel can be considered as one of the most common cause for this problem . Make sure that parallel port, PC-style parallel port, and printer support is enabled in the configuration, and that modules are loaded.
