I don't remember exactly if this was a hardware / configuration
or FreeBSD driver problem (with your hardware).

Check, if you don't have overlapping IRQs.

Then perhaps try to configure the LPT port from interrup to
"polling" mode:

     lptcontrol -i | -p | -e | -s [-d device]
     -i      Turn on interrupt-driven mode.
     -p      Turn on polled mode.

Then check the FreeBSD mailing list archive on "stray irq 7"
