The following is my printer, this is one of 13 not configured to the acpi problem.

 pnp: PnPACPI: METHOD_NAME__CRS failure for PNP0400

I have tried:

pnpacpi=off
pci=noapic,routeirq
pci=routeirq
acpi=off
acpi=strict
I have tried pnpacpi=off with ACPI v2.0 turned on at bios (off by default).
All of these were with 0x378 and irq 7 set for the parallel port in bios with spp mode, and mostly with irq7 reserved. I think this is definitely an acpi problem.

pnpacpi=off removes the error messages, and throughout all of these the printer is recognized, but it still will not work. I am guessing the magic point is (like in breezy) where I get acpi pnp configuring all devices, specifically my parallel port.
