Hi!

I have two different USB printers connected to my Linux Box.
Usually, printer#1 has minor device number 0 (/dev/usb/lp0) and
printer#2 has minor device number 1 (/dev/usb/lp1). When turning
off both printers and afterwards turning on printer#2 as the first one,
printer#2 has now minor device number 0 (/dev/usb/lp0) and uses the
wrong printer driver.
Is there any method to do a fixed assignment of a printer to an USB minor
device number?
I believe that this problem concerns not only printers but all situations
where you have more than one USB device with the same major device number
to the same Linux box connected and where you have some kind of static
configuration for them.
