We have a print server device that connects parrallel cable to CAT5.
http://www.startech.com/ststore/itemdetail.cfm?product_id=PS1100A
This device works fine (although sometimes tempermental) with LPR driver on
NT4 system pointed at LPT1:192.168.1.8 - it doesn't work (yet) with Linux.
I'm not sure what info might be needed to resolve this, but here goes.  I
installed RedHat7.2, then used 'printconf-gui' to add a printer:
