Hi Till, dead certain 755 was the default(installation) permissions for parallel backend.
You're right! The Deskjet 840C does have a USB port. The printer was given to me by a friend years ago who said it was just a parallel printer. I'd completely forgot to look. But then all my usb ports are full. :o( The USB connectivity though does not resolve the permissions issue with the parallel backend for accessing a parallel printer.
