that looks fishy to me. But the ": not found" doesn't seem to come from 
lpd itself (at least I couldn't find such an output in 3.1_STABLE 
sources, which I use to run on my PWS433au).

I assume (but I'm not an expert at all on lpd!!) the message comes from 
const char* checkremote(void) in common_source/common.c, which return 
errbuf several times.

Does "localhost" etc. resolve okay on your machine? Is loopback 
networking active?

Hope this helps to dig down to the source of the problem,

  Torsten
