The printer shows up just fine on the initial boot: ppc0: at port 0x378-0x37f irq 7 on isa0 ppc0: Generic chipset (NIBBLE-only) in COMPATIBLE mode ppbus0: IEEE1284 device found /NIBBLE/ECP Probing for PnP devices on ppbus0: ppbus0: MLC,PCL,PML plip0: on ppbus0 lpt0: on ppbus0 lpt0: Interrupt-driven port ppi0: on ppbus0 But when I try to print a test page after adding the printer to an NT box it fails. My /etc/printcap looks like: P1000|HP Photosmart:\ :sh:\ :lp=/dev/lpt0:sd=/var/spool/output/lpd:lf=/var/log/lpd-errs: I've tried installing and setting up apsfilter but the P1000 is not supported through that port. Is there any way for me to bind what has been found on ppbus0 into my printcap? Is that what I need to do?
