You can add 'ppa' to /etc/modules to get it to load at boot, and for the
duration.  Don't know if lp and zip can work at the same time though...
I think /zip could be mounted on /dev/sda4 (at least that's what the jaz
drives defaulted to).  lp would be on /dev/lp0 (I think -- 2.2.x
kernels).  There are a couple of HOWTOs on iomega devices.  They may
discuss sharing with a printer.
