Hey "smarties",
Am trying to get something printed from FreeBSD - but nothing seems to come
out. I've tried sending itmes such as:
# echo hello > /dev/lpt0
But I get nothing! I've even tried to connect two machines via a PLIP
connection, but I still get nothing! My printer is a Cannon BJC-3000 which
works under RedHat quite happily. It's driving me insane!!!! PLEASE HELP!
Follwing is an output from the "dmesg" command:
