I have checked all possible things pointed = out in the FreeBSD book and nothing seems to work. - I did "lptest > /dev/lpt0" and it returned "cannot create /dev/lpt0: = no such device or addresses" though /dev/lpt0 does exist. - "lptest | lpr" yielded "waiting for lp to become ready (offline?)", = but my printer is turned on. - lpd is running at startup so I don't need to run lpd manually. I don't think it's a hardware problem because I am able to do = bi-directional printing from my other partition which is Windows = 95/Windows NT. I have all of the following lines required for parallel = printing: controller ppbus0 device ppc0 at isa? port? tty irq 7 device lpt0 at ppbus? I use an HP 722C Deskjet printer. -Jeffrey ------=_NextPart_000_000D_01BFAA4C.7CC33EB0 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META content=3D"text/html; charset=3Diso-8859-1" = http-equiv=3DContent-Type> <META content=3D"MSHTML 5.00.2314.1000" name=3DGENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=3D#ffffff> <DIV><FONT face=3D"Futura Bk BT" size=3D2>I am still unable to print.
