I think 'lpinfo -v' is the command that was wanted.

This is not the correct way to use this command. But we will leave that
on one side for the moment.

So you have a LaserJet 1100 connected to the server (the host) using a
parallel connection.

First you need to bring your installation up-to-date; cups is now at
version 1.7.1-2. Then *on the server*

1. Delete (or move) /var/log/cups/error_log.

2. Enable debug logging with

        cupsctl --debug-logging

3. Restart cups with

        service cups restart

4. Print a file *from the server* with

        lp -d queue_name file_name or
        lp file_name (if the 1100 is the default printer)

5. Say whether printing takes place and attach the error_log to the mail
   you send to this bug.

avahi-daemon is not required for what you have been asked to do above.
However, in general, I would question the benefit of not having it
installed.
