Post printer

I would like to set up my printer for linux RedHat7.1
I've used printtool (or should I say printconf-gui) and selected the correct driver, but I have no responce from the printer, instead I see this error:
device /dev/lp0 cannot be found. (or something to the effect of: *whine, I can't see /dev/lp0") I have a /dev/lp0
do I need to change it's permissions?
thanks
