That's exactly why. :-) The CUPS web interface (and system-config-printer, which behaves in the same way) shows *available* devices. The 'parallel' CUPS backend looks for parallel ports. If it doesn't find any, there will not be an option for a parallel port when setting up a new queue. The udev problem is that, for some reason, /dev/lp0 is not getting created. > But why does Karl not see it when he has a parallel port? Well, that's the bug.. ;-) Tim. */
