With CUPS on debug log level, I get the following:


D [20/Aug/2006:00:32:30 -0400] [Job 13] Traceback (most recent call last):

So why is it finding the user "guest" ?
And is the right parallel port /dev/parport0 ?  (there's only one on the mb)
I was getting exit status 9 until I changed the permissions on /dev/parport0.

Thanks for looking at this.
