Same way you would any other driver. Compile it as a module <M> instead
of built-in <*> in the kernel. Then, most distros have a config file for what 
modules
to autoload at boot time; don't include it in there either.  If it keeps loading
on you, and you don't need it, just don't even build it at all in the kernel. I 
haven't used a parallel port in at least 5 years, so that's the first thing 
that comes
out when compiling my kernels.
