Bug Description

I have lenovo PC edge 73z, this PC has an LPT port. I've tried to install Windows in this PC, and it's printing well from LPT, but whe I reinstall it with ubuntu 12.04, 13.04, and 14.04, it would not work.

When I try to add print, it's detecting my printing such as LQ310 and LQ2180, but in Printing Tes steps, it can't printing.

I've also tried to print with the same print and with the same OS but at this time via USB, it working well.

Please, any one have the solution for me?

Please run the following command

/usr/lib/cups/backend/parallel

and post its answer here. Especially in the case of not getting any answer, check /var/log/syslog whether new lines containing "audit" or lines with error messages appear. Please post these lines here.

Try also

sudo /usr/lib/cups/backend/parallel

and do the same as above.

Now try following the instructions of the section "AppArmor Protection of the printing system" on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingPrintingProblems and repeat the commands above. Do you get answers now? Are you able to print now?
