Yes, that would usually be the case I think.
What happened to us with parallel printers is that we see no device in the /dev directory that corresponds to the printer (no /dev/lp0 or similar).
So no matter what you put in PRINTER_0_DEVICE, jetpipe will complain about not finding the device and dies.
We ended up not bothering about parallel printing and are now using serial or usb.

I think for parallel port printers you need to use
PRINTER_0_DEVICE = "/dev/lp0" instead of "/dev/usblp0"
PRINTER_TYPE = P instead of U or S
