What am I doing wrong? (Parallel port printer)
I'm trying to get a HP 690C printer working on a woody machine, using CUPS.
What's starnge is that CUSP sees the printer, and even knows what tyoe it
is, but it's not working.
Here is some useful (I hope) info:

So it appears as though something is wrong with communication to teh
printer, correct? I've got parallel port, and the IEE support compiled in
the kernel.
So what do I check next?
