If I understand it correctly, the above line says that you do not have the
parallel port device.
You must have a parallel port device (/dev/lp?) in order to use a printer that
is attached to the hardware parallel port.
What does
ls /dev/lp*

I am still manually loading the lp module for each boot.

Hi,
I'm sorry to jump in on a discussion like this but my problem
relates - I think. My system is from the 1.3.1 cd and is basically
unmodified as far as the kernel is concerned. During boot the system
hangs on loading the lp module. I do a control c and go on from there.
Later - looking at

I am using the default bo kernel.
At this point I'm beginning to suspect that other kernel drivers may
be causing a problem. What other modules are loaded? (use lsmod or
cat /proc/modules) What interrupts and iopo

I guess I was unclear. I tried /dev/lp0 , /dev/lp1, /dev/lp2,
and /dev/lp3.
Anyway, I tried reconfiguring magicfuilter, as suggested by Bob

whether redirecting directly to lp1 or using lpr.
