Does anyone know how to mount a zip drive on Ubuntu?

Tried a "dmesg | grep hd" in a terminal with an output :)

hdd: IOMEGA ZIP 100 ATAPI, ATAPI FLOPPY drive
hdd: set_drive_speed_status: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete
Error }
hdd: set_drive_speed_status: error=0x04

Tried a "sudo fdisk -l /dev/hdd", returns nothing. 
Tried mounting as /dev/hdd1* hdd2 * hdd3 * etc... and no luck! 

And in all cases :)
mount: special device /dev/hdd* does not exist!

In Fedora, I use to mount it as /dev/hdc4.

thanks for any help!
