Yes, it's built into the lpt driver.  Just enable a port with an
interrupt and reboot -- you'll see 'TCP/IP capable interface' in the boot
log and that should enable a lp0 device.  Then configure as a
point-to-point link.

I don't know if that plip is compatible with other implementations though.
You'd have to try it.
