Hullo, I have a brand-new Hp Deskjet d1420 which is perfectly detected by FreeBSD: ~ % usbdevs addr 1: UHCI root hub, VIA addr 2: Deskjet D1400 series, HP addr 1: UHCI root hub, VIA addr 1: UHCI root hub, VIA addr 1: EHCI root hub, VIA -- and -- ~ % dmesg | grep ugen0 ugen0: HP Deskjet D1400 series, rev 2.00/1.00, addr 2 I installed print/hplip and print/cups I followed the directions at http://am-productions.biz/docs/hplip.php exactly, but when I try to run hp-setup, I get this: error: No devices found.Please make sure your printer is properly connected and powered-on So, I tried using CUPS own web-interface, no luck, it doesn't even list USB as an option, KDE's "kprinter" interface does, but it's greyed out. I tried the "find manually" function in hp-setup, but was instructed to use the command lsusb, which doesn't seem to exist; I suspect lsusb is a Linux specific command, and, indeed, the portions of HPLIP's web-site dealing with this aspect make clear references to Linux's method of handling USB device notes. I am at my wits end. I have tried everything I could think of, to no avail. Thanks in advance. --John.
