I just bought an Epson 900 with a USB port. Sending any data to the printer will result in the heads "charging" or whatever you call that when they wiggle around, but no printing. I turned on the tracing in the ulpt.c code, and the driver *thinks* it's sending data to the printer, but nothing happens. Hmmm...
