Thanks for the pointer, I had googled, but didnt find anything  
interesting, this seems to be what I need.

I added the printer through localhost:631 told the cups manager it was  
at lpt0 (it isnt.)

Then editing the conf files and added the directives as you suggested.

Will test later when it isnt so early in the morning a loud dot matrix  
printer wont screw with everyone not up yet.
