Hi Xtian,

I can't find your request on our support site - here's an extract from 
our linux faq.

Failure to connect to parallel port target interfaces may be caused by 
the following problems:

    * The user does not have read permission for the parallel port
      device driver (e.g. /dev/parport0). Linux typically does not grant
      all users access to the parallel port device drivers by default.
      To permit a user to access to the parallel port device drivers the
      user can either be added to the *lp* group, or alternatively the
      read permissions of the parallel port device driver can be changed
      to allow all users to have read access to it. Either of these
      actions require super user level permissions.
    * Another application or device driver already has exclusive control
      of the parallel port device driver.
