Linux doesn't think that the parallel port supports mode 4 (that's the code for an EPP port). The PPMC driver can't find anything on bus 0 (port 0378), presumably because the parallel port isn't in an appropriate mode. > I have tried CMOS printer settings EPP and ECP with no change. > What is mode 4? > Which is the prefered setting EPP or ECP, when it is working? > EPP is the correct mode. ECP should also work, I think, but it's not necessary and it ties up a DMA channel (that isn't used).
Try messing with the BIOS settings a bit more. Just to be sure, you should power down the PC (not just reboot) after making BIOS changes. - Steve ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Beautiful is writing same markup.
