the only thing i can suggest at this point (since i have the same
problem) is the post from rem:

==========
Do you have devfs.rules in your /etc directory that has this contained
within:

[system=10]
add path 'unlpt*' mode 0660 group cups
add path 'ulpt*' mode 0660 group cups
add path 'lpt*' mode 0660 group cups

There is a whole permissions thing that has to be correct or cups won't
play.
==========

here's a link to that thread:

i haven't had a chance to look into this yet so i don't know if it is a
solution or not.
