After some further investigation I've decided that this is a
non-starter; the lz11-V2 installer does some pretty hideous stuff,
like renaming the "gs" binary out of the way and replacing it with a
perl wrapper. As if I would never use ghostscript for anything else?
So the alternate plan is to print from a vmware windows machine.
Trouble is I want to run vmware as a normal user, not as root, which
means vmware can't open the parallel port. Is there anything I should
know, possibly something SElinux related, before simply putting the
vmware user into the "lp" group so that it can access the port?
