Of course here is the error! It is not LPT1 what you are
to put in the entry; the comment says what you put there
will be seen as LPT1 by DOS programs. And it must be
defined in /etc/printcap. Oh, in some case it can be
correct: if you use name "LPT1" in /etc/printcap as the
name of printer. Usually there is one printer named "lp".
