Somethings wrong with the parallel printing device.

All print jobs hang no matter if I'm using polled or IRQ driven
mode (using lptcontrol).

With a FreeBSD of today I get stray IRQ's 7 and when looking at the
IRQs I notice 20000-50000 (!!!) per second on a print job ...

One week ago everything was fine with printing ...

The print job alway hangs immediately or after about 10-30 seconds.

Am currently only using samba for remote printing.
The Windows binary data are directly sent to the printer via
or default printcap entry (currently no apsfilter in use).

Using polling mode didn't help and the printjob even hang at
the beginning of the printjob ...

BIOS setting is ECP+EPP.
