Cannot print from terminal Emulator

I would appreciate any help or pointers for the following problem.

I cannot print from my terminal emulator, VanDyke's SecureCrt to any of my printers, an HP, an SMB-defined Cannon, and an OCHI. I can print from applications like Firefox and Evolution.

I have worked with my SecureCrt vendor, and they cannot duplicate my problem. They feel the problem is in my CUPS configuration, but, after reading cupsd.conf, I cannot see what the problem would be.

Here is the tail end of my cups.log file.

E [15/Dec/2011:15:38:29 -0500] [cups-polld 10.100.0.100:631] Unable to connect to 10.100.0.100 on port 631: Connection refused
E [15/Dec/2011:15:38:29 -0500] [cups-polld 10.100.0.71:631] Unable to connect to 10.100.0.71 on port 631: Connection refused
E [15/Dec/2011:15:38:36 -0500] Returning HTTP Forbidden for Send-Document (ipp://localhost:631/printers/lp) from localhost

I believe the problem lies in the last error, I can print from Evolution and Firefox to all my printers.

Here is cupsd.conf
