Been whacking my head on this one for a few hours now...

Trying to setup an HP DeskJet 930C printer via USB and CUPS. I've followed the printing docs on the Gentoo site, but am running into a road block.

I've compiled the usbcore and printer modules and they load. I see my printer pop up in the logs, and /dev/usb/lp0 exists.

I've printed a manual test page by sending text directly to /dev/usb/lp0, and it worked! yay!

I've installed cups, footmatic, ghostscript, and hpijs with no errors.

But, I'm having problems from there. I've started cupsd:

Code:
 # /etc/init.d/cupsd start
 * Starting cupsd...    [ok]

# tail /var/log/cups/error_log 
I [15/Sep/2003:16:25:04 -0400] Full reload complete.

# netstat -anp --inet

But foomatic and lpstat cannot seem to find it:
Code:
# foomatic-configure -s cups -p "HP-DeskJet_930C" -c /dev/usb/lp0 -n deskjet -d hpijs
lpadmin: Unable to connect to server: Connection refused
Could not set up/change the queue "deskjet"!

# lpstat -t
lpstat: Unable to connect to server: Connection refused


Any ideas?
