Thanks for the response David. I had tried "modprobe lp", but that gave me the error: /lib/modules/2.2.14/misc/lp.o: invalid parameter parm_io /lib/modules/2.2.14/misc/lp.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.2.14/misc/lp.o failed /lib/modules/2.2.14/misc/lp.o: insmod lp failed The answer came from Mike Thompson, who had me do "insmod parport" "insmod parport_pc" then "insmod lp" (He also suggested I do an "insmod parport_probe" just before the "insmod lp", but that resulted in a "module not found" type message, and things are working without it.) Thanks again!
