All of you are having bidirectional communication issues.

Parallel printers should have a IEEE1284-certified bidirectional cable that's not defective, and if it's connected directly to the PC, the parallel port needs to be set to at least bidirectional in the bios - with ECP preferred.

All print servers used with modern printers need to be capable of bidirectional communications.
