******************************************* Printer: Epson Stylus C40UX (usb) OS: FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE ******************************************* It is the only printer attached to my computer via usb. When I tried to "lpr filename", the printer responded to it for awhile by moving its cartridge holder, but nothing got actually printed. That was after I rebooted the PC. For the second time when I tried to "lpr filename", there were no responses from the printer at all. After each reboots, the printer acknowledges the commands for once only, and just sits there idle. I have followed the directions under the title "Printing" in the FreeBSD Handbook, and of course, replacing the "lp0" as "ulpt0". Here's the output that I get: ============= bash-2.05b$ dmesg | grep ulpt0 ulpt0: EPSON USB Printer, rev 1.10/1.00, addr 2, iclass 7/1 ============= So, this means that the OS already acked the printer. Am I right? But it still does not print. Does it have to do with that PostScript thing? Please help me out with this problem guys!
