Printer Error(the Object Instance Test Does Not Exist)

Hello, i need some help about how to set up a high velocity impact printer in UNIX SCO 5.05,

this printer is attached with a parallel port in a PC(host), the host use tunemul to access unix.(this reference is just to ask you if this is a local or remote connection, just to be sure),

so, i was using mkdev lp
and following all the steps


when i finished all appears right

the command lpstat -t says :
printer test is idle. enabled since Wed Sep 04 12:44:36 2002. available.

at this point all looks good

but, when i send the print job nothing happens

lp -d test .profile // example
