I know in the CUPS guide it suggests to push data right to /dev/lp0 (
echo "bla bla bla" > /dev/lp0), did u try this? I know my printer at
one point would print what I echoed to it, but not through cups.
However don't ask me how I fixed it, I don't remember, and I'm not
sure if I ever did. CUPS has never cooperated with my computer.
if echo to lp0 works then its probably cups, and if it doesn't then
something else.
No reaction from the printer to cat foo.txt > /dev/lp0. I also tried
appending a ^L without success. This would suggest a problem with
/dev/lp0, which is unfortunate, since I have no idea how to diagnose
this (unlike CUPS, which has a nice logfile).
I'll check the cable and pins with a multimeter, but otherwise I'm
stymied.
