I thought that the ubuntu-bugs cups program already did that.
However, here's the output requested from the Parallel Port section:
br...@pinkroom:~$ lsmod | grep lp
lp 17156 0

br...@pinkroom:~$ lsmod | grep ppdev
ppdev 15620 0
parport 42220 2 ppdev,lp
br...@pinkroom:~$ dmesg | grep par

When I bring up the New Printer dialog, the only devices listed are:
Serial Port #1
Other
> Network Printer
Nothing that indicates that a parallel port printer can be selected.
** Changed in: cups (Ubuntu)
