Are you saying that the router appliance that can also be a
print-server?  If that's the case, you need to read the documentation
on that device to figure out how to use it.

Or, are you saying you have a computer system that you use as a
router, that also has a parallel printer port.  If that's the case,
then are you saying that you installed CUPS and lpr on it to try to
get a functioning print-server and it's not working?

More detailed information is needed, please.

thanks,
jc
