Yup!

nano kernel: parport0: PC-style at 0x378, irq 7 [SPP,PS2,EPP] 
nano kernel: parport0: Printer, Hewlett-Packard HP LaserJet 6L

I setup everything as you describe below. I don't remember having to
do all this stuff before(on other machines anyway). I guess I'm used to
RH's fluffed-up stock kernels.

Thanks,
Mike
