I am a few steps further but not quite there yet. The mknod did create
/dev/lp0. When I ran "printconf" after that, it recognised a HP DeskJet
842c on the parallel port (close enough -- it's an 840 in reality). I
don;t know how cups/printconf detects their printers but to me this
looks like good communication over the parallel port. lpstat -p says:

printer deskjet_842c is idle.  enabled since Thu 22 Mar 2007 12:39:29 AM UTC

However, when I try to print something and run lpstat again to it I get:

printer deskjet_842c disabled since Thu 22 Mar 2007 12:24:40 AM UTC -
        /usr/lib/cups/backend/parallel failed
