The reason nothing happens is that you are not printing to a "device".

Your modem is most likely Plug-N-Play. In order to initialize Plug-N-Play
devices you
need the isapnp package. Use dselect to install this package. You'll then need
to
customize the /etc/isapnp.conf file. Try to verify whether or not your modem is
