Hi, Ive started using escputil to check and clean my print heads, it works great but I also need to check the ink level, apparently I need to access the printer directly by defining the rew device, ie,
escputil --ink-level --raw-device /dev/??? My printer is an epson stylus C60, using the parellel port. As a guess I tried par0 debian:/home/test# escputil --ink-level --raw-device /dev/par0 Escputil version 4.2.0, Copyright (C) 2000-2001 Robert Krawitz Escputil comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type 'escputil -l' This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it under certain conditions; type 'escputil -l' for details. Cannot read from /dev/par0: Invalid argument debian:/home/test# Then par1,2,3 ... debian:/home/test# escputil --ink-level --raw-device /dev/par1 Escputil version 4.2.0, Copyright (C) 2000-2001 Robert Krawitz Escputil comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type 'escputil -l' This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it under certain conditions; type 'escputil -l' for details. Cannot open /dev/par1 read/write: No such device or address debian:/home/test# Is /dev/par0 the parallel port for my printer ? If so any ideas why escputil cant read from from to it ? I execute escputil from root ? Dave ... -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
