I've gotten a Epson Stylus Color 880 that hooked up straightforward under windows connected to the USB port, but so far it is not working under Debian with a 2.4 kernel. Per all the howtos I've read, I created the file /dev/usb/lp0 using mknod, in /etc/printcap I put as the first entry:
lp0 :\ :sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp:\ :lp=/dev/usb/lp0:\ :if=/usr/share/apsfilter/bin/apsfilter:\ :sh: (I installed the debian apsfilter package.) And in my /etc/fstab I put: usbdevfs /proc/bus/usb usbdevfs defaults 0 0 I try to print with the command $ lpr test.ps but nothing happens. (It doesn't hang or anything: simply nothing happens, I get another $ prompt.) What should I be trying that I haven't? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
