I have a DFI AK74-EC motherboard (VIA 686 chipset) and a Lexmark Z51 printer. I would like to be able to print to the Z51 using /dev/ulpt0. When connected, my dmesg output indicates that the Z51 is detected and connected to /dev/ulpt0. However, attempts to print to this port (using apsfilter, cp some_text_file /dev/ulpt0, etc.) have resulted in no activity and no apparent transfer of data to the printer. So the question comes, what must I say over my computer to make things print? :) jmc To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
