>Organization:
LPRng.com
>Environment:
Tested on FreeBSD 4.4-RELEASE
>Description:
System: various, including ASUS A7V. Does not appear to be a motherboard/system
issue.
PRINTER: HP2200, HP Deskjet, Ricoh (i.e. - not a printer issue)
Note: RedHat Linux does detection, as does MS 2000, so it does not
appear to be defective combination
>How-To-Repeat:
1. start GENERIC system. Plug and Play USB support is enabled.
2. kill usbd (killall usbd)
3. start usbd: usbd -v -d
usbd: opened /dev/usb0
usbd: reading configuration file /etc/usbd.conf
usbd: opened /dev/usb
usbd: detach event at 1008976442.172197000, product 0x0217, Hewlett Packard:
vndr=0x03f0 prdct=0x0217 rlse=0x0100 clss=0x0000 subclss=0x0000 prtcl=0x0000
usbd: Found action 'Printer' for product 0x0217, Hewlett Packard
usbd: attach event at 1008976447.059681000, HP LaserJet 2200, HewLett Packard:
vndr=0x03f0 prdct=0x0217 rlse=0x0100 clss=0x0000 subclss=0x0000 prtcl=0x0000
usbd: Found action 'Printer' for HP LaserJet 2200, HewLett Packard
usbd: Executing '/usr/bin/uprinter ${DEVNAME}'
usbd.conf has the following added:
# The entry below starts moused when a mouse is plugged in. Moused
# stops automatically (actually it bombs :) when the device disappears.
#
device "Printer"
class 0x0000
attach "/usr/bin/uprinter ${DEVNAME}"
Note: /usr/bin/uprinter is just:
#!/bin/sh
echo "$0" "$@" >/tmp/log
printenv >>/tmp/log
exit 0
and we get in /tmp/log:
/usr/bin/uprinter ugen0
DEVNAME=ugen0
-----
Basically, it appears that the ulpt driver is either not being
called during the probing, or it is not detecting the HP printer.
This is, as they say, VERY odd. However, /dev/ugen0.1 is attached
to the printer, and you can write data to it.
I am totally baffled.

I sure would like to know...
