Printer woes



After writing of my printer troubles several days ago and following every suggestion without success, I decided that my problem was that I had a vendor version of Debian potato. I then bought an "official" version and my Debian program still will not print.

I have Windows, Redhat, and Debian on three different partitions of my computer. With the same hardware, Windows and Redhat print without any problems. However, Debian does not recognize that a printer is connected to my computer. Although I have established this fact in several ways, the simplest is:
~# echo "hello" > /dev/lp0
Response "no such device"
~# echo "hello" > /dev/lp1
Response "no such device".

Can anybody tell me what is wrong?
