In '/usr/src/linux/Documentation/devices.txt' you can see:
  6 char Parallel printer devices
ie. you are trying to load the parallel port driver.

Are you trying to print something ?
Perhaps your printer queue is not empty and lpd (is it running ?) try to
print the remaining files.

These I don't know. Are these two messages related (printed together in
your log) ?
