It is scanning for lp ports,  there are several places lp ports can be. 
On your bus (like a standard lpt1: port).  Another place is out there
hanging of a usb hub.  The module to drive the printer port may not
actually load until you print something.

Do you have a line anything like -
alias char-major-180 usb-uhci
in your /etc/modules.conf?

Did you build a kernel -USB support?
