Same problem for me with a HP LJ4m. The only thing that fixed it was "lptcontrol -s" (or -p) to go into standard polled mode. I too believe the lpt0 device is not working properly. This was tested on two separate machines, one of which worked flawlessly with the lp0 printer device under BSD/OS with interrupts enabled. My question is will making lpt0 use polled mode interfere with my parallel port ZIP drive using interrupts?
