Unless you've installed it explicitly, you probably don't have LPRng
installed.

If you have an /etc/lpd.perms or /usr/local/etc/lpd.perms file, then
there's a good chance LPRng is installed.  Whether or not it's being
used is another question.

Do a 
ps auxww | grep lpd

(or, whatever your favorite ps flags are if you have one of those
wacky ps -fadel versions instead)

If you don't get any processes back from that, you're not running any
print daemon, so you'd have to fix that before you can get Samba
working.
