I assume you have only one printer port. LEAVE OUT
the lp=0xnnn and let the kernel probe for the printer.
Then look at what the kernel spits out, it will tell
you where the printer is. Try "dmesg | less" to see it.

which module is loaded for the parallel port? i prefer static kernels but
from what i can see you would need parport_pc loaded and not parport. and
for 2.2.x you gotta tell it to support parallel printers in character
device section of config, again i always do my kernels as much static as i
can s

I changed it to 0x378 and said modprobe lp io=0x378
The device is still /dev/lp0. lp1 and lp2 are still not configured,

Yes, /dev/lp0 should be the correct device. Also I can see the printer
in a way, since tunelp /dev/lp0 only gives specific output if the
printer is connected.

I believe it is /dev/lp1=lpt1:. Are you sure you are using the correct
device ?
