I don't think you are missing any modules. parport_pc, lp and ppdev should be sufficient and are all that I have loaded here. The "Add Printer" function gets its information for the parallel port from /usr/lib/cups/backend/parallel, Executing that file as root should give a description of the printer attached. With the printer unattached the output is "unknown". -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
