When I look at dmesg, it says ppbus0: PRINTER BJL,BJRaster,BSCC,TXT01 lpt0: on ppbus 0 lpt0: Interrupt-driven port ppi0: on ppbus 0 plip0: on ppbus 0 It knows what the printer is, but can't send data to it at all. I have tried polled mode as well to the same result. I don't get an error, it thinks for a second and then just gives me a new prompt. Any ideas would be much appreciated.
