BTW, if I try to unload it (rmmod), I get: [root@shlomo1 solomon]# rmmod printer printer: Device or resource busy > What devices do you have in /dev/usb/ ?

Also, if I pull the USB plug the printer disappears and re-appears when I plug it in again. CUPS WWW admin tool and the KDE printer tool both allow me to start or stop the printer or even to send a test page. But nothing gets printed. The only indications I have that there's a problem are the error messages I sent in my previous post. BTW - the KDE printing manager also gives me the same error message (Unable to open USB port device file "/dev/usb/lp0": No such device). Sometimes, instead of that, I get the device busy message. I'm becoming more convinced that this is a USB problem, rather than a printer problem. Do you aggree? I hope that someone can finally help me with this. It's the only thing that really messes up MDK 9.0 for me. -- Shlomo Solomon http://come.to/shlomo.solomon Sent by KMail (KDE 3.0.3) on LINUX Mandrake 9.0 ================================================================To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
