Assuming that what you have is a HP 7200e - it is not actually a SCSI device,
but the Windows driver makes it look like one to the rest of that OS.
For Linux information, you should visit http://www.torque.net/parport/cdr.html
If you are running a 2.2 kernel, you should be able to do the following:
insmod parport
insmod parport_pc
insmod paride
insmod epat
insmod pcd
insmod pg
At this point, the drive should be accessible as an ordinary CD-ROM on
/dev/pcd0. If you want to write CDs on it, you must get 'cdrecord' and
build it with 'pg' support.
pcd does _not_ support writing to CD-RW media as if it were a normal
disk, nor does it read multi-session CDs at this time.
