What fixed it for me was to add the following lines at the end of /etc/rc.d/rc.local /sbin/modprobe parport /sbin/modprobe parport_pc /sbin/modprobe lp --now my printer works again, maybe that helps you as well! bye, Willy

This is what I thought the original problem could be also, but it wasn't. Here is what my /etc/conf.modules file looks like: alias eth0 3c59x alias parport_lowlevel parport_pc options parport_pc io=0x378 irq=7 pre-install pcmcia_core /etc/rc.d/init.d/pcmcia start alias sound sb pre-install sound insmod sound dmabuf=1 options opl3 io=0x388 alias midi awe_wave post-install awe_wave /bin/sfxload /etc/midi/GU11-ROM.SF2 options sb io=0x220 irq=5 dma=1 dma16=5 mpu_io=0x330 Thanks again for any replies -Bill Munden - Original Message - From: Mike Fieschko <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, October 05, 1999 6:50 AM Subject: [newbie] My printer doesn't work... > >>> "Bill" == Bill Munden <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > > Bill> I have installed Linux-Mandrake 6.1.

[newbie] My printer doesn't work...
I have installed Linux-Mandrake 6.1. When I initially setup my printer, I was able to print some test pages just fine. Afterward, I ran the sndconfig utility for my Sound Blaster Awe 32. Sound works okay, but I am no longer able to print anything. My printer is an Epson Sylus 740. The filter I am using is Epson Stylus Color. If someone could help me resolve this problem, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank You -Bill Munden
