hello there: i have a HP DeskJet 712c printer connected to port LPT1(i assume this is a parallel port, let me know if i am wrong). the kernel has been configured to reflect this. however, i cannot get it to print. i have been following the freebsd handbook on printing, using lptest, etc, but i can't get anything to go. does anyone know if this printer can print plain text, post script, HP's PCL? the printer documentation is mickey mouse, for families connecting this to the family pc. it does not mention printer language. any suggestions? do i need a driver or something? thanks -aaron To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
