After playing with the permissions on ulpt, I can print a test page, though half of it comes out after I manually feed my printer. After that half-printed page, anything I try to print after will get me a "USB port busy; will retry in 30 seconds..." message and it never prints. -- FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT #4: Sun Jun 25 12:13:31 EDT 2006 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/CLK01A PGP? : http://www.clkroot.net/security/nb_root.asc
