try
whereis lpd
lpd: /usr/sbin/lpd /usr/share/man/man8/lpd.8.gz

if you get that then, no you didn't delete it

is it running
ps aux |grep lpd
root       374  0.0  0.0  1352   32 ?        S    Apr29   0:00 /usr/sbin/lpd

is it running?  No then
/etc/init.d/lpd restart

HTH=Hope This Helps, YMMV=Your Mileage May Vary, HAND=Have A Nice Day
