I don't know if this is the right list, feel free to forward to any other list or direct to USB maintainer if you think he can help me. And please Cc: me, I'm only on current@
I have an USB printer (Epson C40ux), and it works like a charm but currently I'm unable to ask ink level or align the head or obtaining any other info using "escputil" # pkg_info -W escputil /usr/local/bin/escputil was installed by package gimp-print-4.2.5_1 This happens either with 4.8-STABLE than 5.1-CURRENT (Aug 22) Are we going to improve ulpt code to support printer messaging? Same problem with USB-UPS from APC (already asked some month ago, see info on ftp://ftp.torrini.org/pub/FreeBSD/APC-hacking/, seems that our USB code can only send and not receive info from USB devices, is this correct? Why Other-OSes can? And how? -----8<-----[ swtch on, /var/log/messages ]-----8<----- Sep 7 00:39:47 silos /kernel: ulpt0: EPSON USB Printer, \ rev 1.10/1.00, addr 3, iclass 7/1 -----8<----- # escputil -q -u -r /dev/unlpt0 -m C40ux -s Cannot read from /dev/unlpt0: Operation not supported by device # escputil -q -u -r /dev/ulpt0 -i Cannot read from /dev/ulpt0: Operation not supported by device # usbdevs -d addr 1: UHCI root hub, VIA uhub0 addr 3: USB Printer, EPSON ulpt0 addr 2: Back-UPS RS 500 FW:30.j2.I USB FW:j2, American Power Conversion uhid0 # usbdevs -d -v Controller /dev/usb0: addr 1: self powered, config 1, UHCI root hub(0x0000), VIA(0x0000), \ rev 1.00 uhub0 port 1 addr 3: self powered, config 1, USB Printer(0x0005), \ EPSON(0x04b8), rev 1.00 ulpt0 port 2 addr 2: low speed, self powered, config 1, Back-UPS RS 500 \ FW:30.j2.I USB FW:j2(0x0002), \ American Power Conversion(0x051d), rev 0.06 uhid0 -- TIA, Riccardo. _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
