Hi All -

I am new to Linux, and have a question about setting up my printer.  I
have a HP DeskJet 820Cse for Windows printer.  I have been told that
to setup any printer I have to go to /etc/conf.modules and add the
following line:  alias parport_lowlevel parport_pc

but I cannot find /etc/conf.modules and if I did find it, where do I
add the line?  I was also told that because my printer is a *Windows*
printer I have to add another line to the above to get the printer to
work.  I know I am doing something wrong somewhere (obviously) but as
I said I am knew to Linux and have been working on a solution for
about two weeks now.  I sure would appreciate some help with this
problem.

One more thing.  I know when I log in as *user* I can't make any
significant changes - I get a *permissions denied* line.  But when I
change to *su* or *root*, I get the same response.  Why is this
happening?

Thanks,

Hermit
