My problem is that when you add a printer via the web interface the
devices pull-down does not show a parallel port even if the system has
detected that there is a printer there.  (ie dmesg shows the printer
discovery)

so where is the parallel port?


Hi --

What I think you want to know is the "Device URI".
If your printer is in lpt0, that would be:

parallel://dev/lpt0

*However*, there's a bug report worth reading (I fixed this on my 6.0
- this is fixed in 6.1). Bug num. 99745

http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ports-bugs/2006-July/094331.html

If you used 6.0, follow the instructions and your printer will be detected.
I still remains with some other problems regarding CUPS...regarding
ffomatic-rip.

Hope this helped.

Cheers,

 Henry
