My internal zip 250 works fine. Fstab contains the following line.

/dev/hdd4               /mnt/zip                auto    noauto,owner 0 0

I type "mount /mnt/zip" and all is happy.

This is an IDE device, you don't need any scsi modules or parallel port 
drivers. The ide driver is all you need, unless you're trying to do some 
funny ide-scsi driver tricks at boot time.

Sorry I can't really help.
