Hi,
I'm trying to configure an Epson Stylus C67 usb inkjet printer without
success.

My system is an snapshot from:
OpenBSD 3.9-beta (GENERIC) #591: Thu Jan 19 12:32:39 MST 2006

I have a simple /etc/printcap:                                                  
                                                                                
                           
lp|lpjet|EpsonC67:\
        :lp=/dev/ulpt0:\
        :mx#0:\
        :rs=false:\
        :sd=/var/spool/output/lp:\
        :lf=/var/log/lpd-errs:\
        :sh:

The printer is detected with a similar message both at the usb 1.1 
and usb 2.0 ports:

ulpt0 at uhub0 port 2 configuration 1 interface 0
ulpt0: EPSON USB Printer, rev 1.10/1.00, addr 2, iclass 7/1
ulpt0: using bi-directional mode


But when I use:

"sudo cat sometextfile > /dev/ulpt0"

or

"lpr sometextfile"

the printer makes some noise, moves the printing head and stops without 
printing anything.

commands like "lpc restart all", "lpc clean all", "lprm -" don't help.

I've searched google and found that a similar problem was solved by using 
/dev/unlpt0 but this device is not present in openbsd.

Have anyone had such a problem?

Am I missing some configuration?


Thanks,
