So I am getting a lot of error messages. I hae reset the printer...I
don't
know what else to do.
Try this:
cat /usr/share/cups/data/testprint.ps > /dev/lp0 (or /dev/parport0?
I'm away from F7 right now)
Tried both. Nothing.

If you get a test page, then you know at least the printer is
functioning and properly connected. Next, I'd probably stop the
"hplip" service, restart CUPS and see if the parallel port is then
offered. Or use the CUPS web interface (http://localhost:631).
All fail, even though it "sees" it, obviously. The printer state says
"Ready" in the window. I tried a new cable, that didn't work, either.
I tried a different machine...nada.
