I can confirm this bug. I upgraded from 8.10 to 9.04 and have a HP Deskjet 720 C on my parallel port. It worked fine before the upgrade. After the upgrade, when I tried to print I got this message: 'Printer may not be connected' (in Dutch). I removed the printer and tried to reïnstall, but it seems not to see the printer.
Here is my output: b...@desktop:~$ lsmod | grep lp lp 17156 0 parport 42220 2 ppdev,lp b...@desktop:~$ lsmod | grep ppdev ppdev 15620 0 parport 42220 2 ppdev,lp b...@desktop:~$ dmesg | grep par [ 0.323461] Booting paravirtualized kernel on bare hardware [ 4.022664] ahc_pci:0:12:0: Host Adapter Bios disabled.
