From linux/Documentation/devices.txt : 6 char Parallel printer device 0 = /dev/lp0 First parallel printer (0x3bc) 1 = /dev/lp1 Second parallel printer (0x378) 2 = /dev/lp2 Third parallel printer (0x278)
Not all computers have the 0x3bc parallel port; hence the "first" printer may be either /dev/lp0 or /dev/lp1 At the end I could get it run and I still got my priter on lp1
