I have read the freeBSD handbook, and followed their instructions.

I have an HP deskjet 710C on freeBSD 4.2.

I added the lines from the handbook into my kernel configuration file,
but I got an error: "config: syntax error on line xx" which was
obviously the line I added.
When freeBSD boots up it sees the printer and also the fact that is is
on ppbus0 and on lpt0.

So in other words I don't know how to make my printer work...

Any tips?
