Hello, I have an old HP DeskJet 560C printer which I used under Mandrake through a standard parallel port connection.
Now I tried to connect the printer via a USB to Centronics 36 cable connector to be able to print throgh the USB port (by the way, this works when printing under XP, WinUAE Amiga OS 3.9 and under MorphOS, so there is no problem with the converter or the printer). Under Mandrake (10.0 Kernel 2.6) I created a new printer with Harddrake2, went to the dialoque (choosing printer model, port and so on, the same stuff I did when I configured it for the parallel port in the past) and it seems to be okay. But as soon as I want to print (from any application), the print dialogue hangs, the application seems to freeze and nothing prints. I have to kill the application or to reboot Mandrake. Any ideas what it could be? Cheers Yvan
