Then why are you using /dev/sda4 to access the drive? Those are only
for parallel port drives.

First, you need to find out what your machine is seeing the zip drive
as. Type 

dmesg |more

and look through the output for your zip drive. Mine looks like the
following:

hdd: IOMEGA ZIP 250 ATAPI Floppy, ATAPI FLOPPY drive

In this case, my zip drive is accessed as /dev/hdd. So, if I have a
mount point called /mnt/zip, I would do:

mount /dev/hdd /mnt/zip

to mount the drive.
