I guess cups might have claimed the parallel port before. Try without
cups running if you want to be sure. There's no good way to avoid
that, apart from disabling the backends by default :/

libieee1284 claims the parallel port so that the kernel will load the
driver if it isn't loaded already; maybe it could be patched to check
that the driver is loaded to avoid this situation...

If you agree, I'll close this bug.
