I have a Lexmark z25 attached to my FBSD 4.9-STABLE i386 machine through USB. However, I can't print to it using /dev/ulpt0. From what I can find on these printers using google is that these printers are crap (too late to return it now). su-2.05# usbdevs -dv Controller /dev/usb0: addr 1: self powered, config 1, UHCI root hub(0x0000), Intel(0x0000), rev 1.00 uhub0 port 1 addr 2: self powered, config 1, Inkjet color printer(0x0057), Lexmark(0x043d), rev 1.00 ulpt0 port 2 powered As you can see, the printer is properly attached to /dev/ulpt0. However, "lptest > /dev/ulpt0" appears to hang, and "echo 1 > /dev/ulpt0" has no effect (just returns after a few seconds). "dmesg | grep -i ulpt" returns no results. Any ideas? -- William Michael Grim Student, Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville Unix Network Administrator, SIUE, Computer Science dept. Phone: (217) 341-6552 Email: wgrim@siue.edu
