Martin - here's some dmesg output, with comments: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ dmesg | grep lp0 ;Before loading ppdev; [4294689.655000] lp0: using parport0 (interrupt-driven). [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo modprobe ppdev Password: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ dmesg | grep lp0 ;After loading ppdev; [4294689.655000] lp0: using parport0 (interrupt-driven). [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ dmesg | grep lp0 ;After ppdev and after examing my printer's preoperties; [4294689.655000] lp0: using parport0 (interrupt-driven). [4294843.708000] lp0: ECP mode [4294843.725000] lp0: ECP mode [4294843.762000] lp0: ECP mode [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$
Also, before ppdev, my printer port shows as "LPT #1"; after, it shows as "hp:/par/HP_LaserJet_6P?device=/dev/parport0 (HP HP_LaserJet_6P)".
