Yes, several times in fact.  I even rebooted the computer, making sure the 
printer was connected and turned on before turning on the computer again.  
The printer recognized the POST from the computer and reset itself.

I have it directly compiled into the kernel.  I'm using devfs, which does find 
a reason to create /dev/lp0; to which I can cat a text file to.

I did have one Allow in the wrong place, corrected it, still no joy.

After I restarted the computer, I went back into the web browser, using the 
"Add Printer" wizard, I can enter the queue name, but when I click on 
"Continue", I still do NOT get any devices listed in the "Device" drop-down 
box.  When I looked in /dev I had /dev/lp0 -> printers/0  I changed the link 
to be /dev/lp0 -> /dev/printers/0   I restarted the cupsd daemon, still with 
no joy.

Any other ideas?

Thanks,

Harlan...
