Currently FreeBSD doesn't support any of those combos sufficiently. That is because uscanner always claims the whole device instead of just the scanner function so ulpt can't take the printing part. You can detach, kldunload uscanner, reattach for printing, but this is not very practical. -- B.Walter BWCT http://www.bwct.de ticso@bwct.de info@bwct.de
