Hello, On my NetBSD 5.1.2/i386 system, there are man pages for ppbus. But from grep'ing the sources, it seems the support is only included (optionally) for acorn32. There is a conditional in sys/arch/i386/pnpbios/files.pnpbios for "!ppbus" and that's all.
Is there no support except in acorn32? (FWIW, the reason is to try to get status information from the printer via HP PJL for a parallel port printer, and this needs bi-directional parallel port support.)
