No success getting the new model Epson Stylus Photo 870 to speak with
lpd over USB... http://www.epson.com/printer/inkjet/sty870/
I have loaded:

The wmforce joystick works nicely over USB.
And the printer is reported as:
T: Bus=01 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=00 Cnt=01 Dev#= 2 Spd=12 MxCh= 0

E: Ad=01(O) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS= 64 Ivl= 0ms
E: Ad=82(I) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS= 64 Ivl= 0ms
I've also:
mkdir /dev/usb
mknod /dev/usb/lp0 c 180 0
chown root.daemon /dev/usb/lp0
chmod 660 /dev/usb/lp0
So far, so good. I can see it in usbview, so cables etc should be ok.
But, sending ascii to the device, or setting up lpd using driver gives
no visible response on the printer.
Any ideas at how I can further troubleshoot?
PS. On RH6.1 with 2.2.15 kernel and 2.3.99r7 backport patch.
