No it doesn't work, but that's nothing to do with this code.

There are two problems. First the printer advertises 7/1/3 so it needs th=
e
IEEE1284 support. This was why I replied. The printer is now found
as ulpt rather than ugen.

There is a second problem. As I understand it, the printer needs
to be sent a channel-change-request before it will use the usb input.
The HP OfficeJet project on sourceforge has a working Linux version, so
it shouldn't be too much of a problem.
