The CUPS software administrators manual says "For an HP DeskJet printer connected to the parallel port this would look like: /usr/sbin/lpadmin -p DeskJet -E -v parallel:/dev/lp1 -m deskjet.ppd ENTER" Presumably this would work with any printer connected to the parallel port, though I have a serial port, so have never tried it. If you have CUPS installed, go to http://localhost:631/sam.html for the software administrator's manual. Otherwise see http://www.cups.org Is this relevant? Faheem.
