I have no idea what it is supposed to be.
%ls -l /dev/ulpt0
crw-r--r--  1 root  operator    0,  68 Jun 25 19:01 /dev/ulpt0

What's the best way to run it as root? When I log into the CUPS web  
interface as root and try to print a test page, it gives me the

Thank you all again for your assistance.
