For some reason, your printer port hardware is not being found, or some
other device is claiming the IO addresses that the printer port device
believes it should be claiming.

Have you:
- checked that the printer port is enabled in your BIOS?;
- checked your dmesg.boot file for any other device that might
  be using IO addresses that your BIOS says belongs to the printer port?
- tried your changing you BIOS' option that says whether the OS
  is plug'n'play or not?
