Hello,

I'm trying to set up Cups on my crux 2.2 box for parallel printing to a Canon i550. I was kind of thinking using it as a printserver.
I enabled parallel port support in the kernel (built in support for all options to be sure I didn't miss anything).

However, I cannot seem to find any /dev/lp stuff or something to hook my printer to the parallel port. I tried /dev/port, but
I get this error from CUPS web interface when trying to print a test page:

Unable to open parallel port device file "/dev/port": Permission denied

I get this from lpstat:

# lpstat -p Canoni550
printer Canoni550 disabled since Wed Jan 17 21:52:26 2007 -
        /usr/lib/cups/backend/parallel failed
#

Any ideas?
