It works in that I can display the page and navigate around, but it doesn't 
successfully add a printer.  Also, when I try to use the "add printer" 
feature, it doesn't display my parallel port in the drop down list, so 
perhaps it isn't detecting it???

How can I tell whether or not my parallel port is active and detected by 
linux? ls /dev shows par0, 1 and 2 as well as parport0, 16, 32 and 48.
