as this is likely re-wind device, maybe its qft0 ?

Maybe it's necessary to disable to kernel ftape stuff, recompile the
kernel without ftape,

then, 

download the latest & greatest version of ftape, <make> then < make
install > ?

Find out which modules you need to run TEAC, for instance, my stinkin'
Ditto needs :-

#!/bin/bash
        #
        # Example module insertion script for ftape-4.x to use Parallel port
        # drive based on the Shuttle BackPack interface.
        #
        insmod ./ftape.o ft_fdc_driver=bpck-fdc,none,none,none ft_tracings=3,3,3,3,3
        insmod ./zftape.o ft_major_device_number=27 # ${27-FT_MAJOR}
        #
        # Make sure that you specifiy AT LEAST the IRQ for your parallel port.  Also
        # the ftape drivers work best if the parallel port is in EPP mode.
        #
        # Only include these insmod lines if you built parallel port support as a 
        # module under 2.2.x kernels.
        #
        insmod parport
        insmod parport_pc io=0x378 irq=7 
        #
        # Now, insmod the Backpack driver
        #
        insmod ./bpck-fdc.o # the Backpack protocol driver

Keep Diggin'
