Dee, I havn�t realy followed this thread, but I remember you tried to
cat a file to /dev/lp0 /dev/lp1 or /dev/lp2.
How is your BIOS setup for the paralel port? I had some *nice* and long
experience with "auto" config and laplink (DOS) last weekend. I *hate*
auto features.
Which kernel do you use? printing as a module? With 2.2.x there are a
few entries in conf.modules to make the damm thing work. (if modules)
Took me some time to:
# post-install paride insmod frpw
# pre-remove paride rmmod frpw
alias parport_lowlevel parport_pc
options parport_pc io=0x378
I hope this is all, just in case this fits, look at the archive of
march. I found it there. Make sure you use the proper address. (can add
the irq as well, works in my case without)
