Simple printer-stall question

Probably a simple question, but not for a newbie.

When a user prints anything with: lpr <filename> nothing comes out on lp0

As root I did:
# lpc status lp0
and it said that printing was enabled and queueing was enabled, and there are xx
entries in the queue.

It also said it was waiting for the printer (offline ??)

Of course the printer is turned on and online

Why is nothing printing ?
