The "irq handler mismatch" and the fallback to "polling" mode seem to indicate that the problem is your parport setup. First of all make sure that the IRQ which you use for the parallel port is not used by any other stuff, see our online documentation (package suselinux-manual_en) /usr/share/doc/manual/suselinux-manual_en/manual/sec.drucken.prob.html Chapter 11. Printer Operation 11.7. Troubleshooting 11.7.3. Parallel Ports Note that for scanning you may have to use a higher-level parport mode (some kind of fast bidirectional mode). There are some bug reports about problems with the parallel port in our Novell/Suse Bugzilla. A good report to start is https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=185135 See also the other bug reports which are mentioned there. Something is fishy with the parallel port stuff in the kernels since Suse Linux 10.0, see http://lists.suse.com/archive/suse-linux-e/2005-Nov/1206.html The current workaround is to experiment with various BIOS settings and explicite additional settings in /etc/modprobe.conf to find a setup, which actually works in a particular problematic case.
