Hi Randy and All, As u said, 'all necessary conversions to a particular printer language are done at a higher level.' Wat does tat higher level mean? Which all r the files that are involved in such activities?
And I am talking about a host side printer server and not about a single printer device.

That's what the usb printer driver is, unless I am just misunderstanding you. drivers/usb/printer.c (in 2.4.x) takes basic I/O requests and sends them to the printer. It knows nothing about PCL or any other printer control language; all necessary conversions to a particular printer language are done at a higher level. ~Randy > Regards > Moushumi > > > -----Original Message----- > From: randy_dunlap [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, July 14, 2005 10:52 AM > To: Moushumi_Mazumdar > Cc: linux-usb-devel@lists.sourceforge.net > Subject: Re: [linux-usb-devel] Linux 2.4.28, USB 2.0, Printer Server > > On Thu, 14 Jul 2005 10:01:44 +0530 Moushumi_Mazumdar wrote: > > > > > Hi Group, > > > > I have few queries like, > > 1) linux 2.4.28 supports USB 2.0 or not?? > > http://www.linux-usb.org/usb2.html > > > 2) Full USB Stack(core) implementation is there in linux 2.4.28 or > not?? > > Yes. > > > 3) In Linux 2.4.28, is 'drivers/usb/printer.c' file enough for printer > > server implementation or not? > > What do you want it to do?
