Thank you, thank you, thank you "Anonymous." Your help has solved my problem.
Direct parallel:/dev/lp0 now appears prominently in the output of
lpinfo -v. I have a sneaking supicion that the adding my deskjet as a CUPS printer will be a hell of a lot easier than editing my rc.modules script.
Thanks again to all the people who helped,
