    Hi,

    I'm trying to install my HP printer with cups on my sarge box.
    As mentioned in the documentation I use the command
    '/usr/sbin/lpadmin -p LaserJet6L -E -v parallel:/dev/lp0 -m
     /usr/share/cups/model/HP-LaserJet_6L-hpijs.ppd' and get
    the message:
    "lpadmin: add-printer (set device) failed: client-error-not-possible"

    The ppd file exists in the mentioned directory. I suppose that my
    parallel port doesn't work properly. How can I check it?
    Or is something else wrong with cups?

    Thank you.

    Chris
