The real goodies are here.
Linux doesn't think that the parallel port supports mode 4 (that's the 
code for an EPP port).  The PPMC driver can't find anything on bus 0 
(port 0378), presumably because the parallel port isn't in an 
appropriate mode.

EPP is the correct mode.  ECP should also work, I think, but it's not 
necessary and it ties up a DMA channel (that isn't used).

Try messing with the BIOS settings a bit more.  Just to be sure, you 
should power down the PC (not just reboot) after making BIOS changes.
