Hi Andrew,
   Thanks for getting back to me.

I've checked the bios setting on the MoBo, the settings for plug 'n'
play OS is disabled.

There isn't anything obvious in dmesg.boot that suggests that another
device is in conflict with the parallel port. I've placed my dmesg.boot
file here, I'd appreciate your double checking this, if you want:

/var/run $ cat dmesg.boot=20
