Thank you.
I have '/dev/printers' but nothing in it.
I do not have '/dev/floppy' at all.

These selected contents of my /dev directory:
agpgart@ cdrom@ cdroms/ console cpu/ discs/ fb/ fb0@ fd@
full gpmctl= hda@ hda1@ hda2@ ide/ initctl| initrd@ input/
kmem log= mem misc/ mouse@ null port printers/
ptmx pts/ pty/ ptya0@ ptya1@ ram2@ ram3@ raminitrd@
random rd/ root@ rtc@ scsi/ sg/ sg0@ shm/ sound/ sr/
sr0@ stderr@ stdin@ stdout@ tty tty0@ tty1@ unknown@
urandom usb/ usbmouse@ vc/ vcc/ vcs@ vcs1@ vcs2@
vcsa@ vcsa1@ zero

This folders and devices scheme is quite new to me.
I cannot associate those acronyms with a parallel port.
