Did you find it necessary to recompile the kernel with ulpt disabled? I have a HP PSC2110 "All-In-One" that I can use in Linux (printing and scanning) but was unable to get working in FreeBSD. I believe part of the solution is to disable ulpt and recompile the kernel, but I had trouble getting hplip to work. FreeBSD does not have hpoj, which is what I use in Linux with this printer. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
