I'm running "trunk" on a box, and just tried attaching an HP PSC 1610
printer to it.

I edited my /mnt/kd/rc.conf file to include:

P910ND_DEVICE0="/dev/usblp0"

and on a Linux host, did (via an automated script we wrote locally):

# foomatic-ppdfile -d 'hpijs' -p 'HP-PSC_1600' > '/tmp/ppdfile7070'
# lpadmin -x 'hppsc160' || true
# lpadmin -p 'hppsc160' -v 'socket://alix:9100/' -P '/tmp/ppdfile7070'
-D 'HP PSC 1600' -L 'the office'
# lpadmin -p 'hppsc160' -o printer-is-shared=true -o raw=true -o
outputorder=reverse
# lpadmin -d 'hppsc160'
# lpadmin -p 'hppsc160' -E
# rm -f /tmp/ppdfile7070

the "lpadmin -d ..." is optional.  This makes it my default printer.

Seems to work fine.

Something to look forward to in 0.7.
