hey all, first of all, i'm not subscribed to the list, so can you please post answers to me too? thanks!
i've got a problem with my printer. history: - i have a brother HL1440 connected to the usb port, and i used to print to /dev/usb/lp0. it allways worked... but it gave errors: <message> usb_control/bulk_msg: timeout usbdevfs: USBDEVFS_CONTROL failed dev 16 rqt 128 rq 6 len 256 ret -110 </message> lsusb gives me: Language IDs: none (cannot get min. string descriptor; got len=-1, error=110:Connection timed out) (and off course more info) now... i think those are the same but... what's the problem now? i added another printer, a HP officejet pro K550. this one is recognized perfectly! (wiiii ;)) and i can access it through usb://HP/Officejet%20Pro%20K550?serial=MY6BA612PS but... now i can't use the other printer anymore. plus, i don't want to use lp0 etc... because that can change after boot etc... so... is there a way to make the brother printer work decently? or is this a known bug, is there something i can test?/do? i'm kinda stuck. i tried unplugging the new k550, reset the HL1440, but i still can't print to the HL1440 anymore. it keeps saying: media tray empty... which it is not ;)) since this is a server, and i'm pretty far away from it, it's kinda hard to reboot etc... kernel version is still 2.4.33-pre2 any ideas? sollutions? (i put the newest usb.ids in hwdata... not that it matters afaik, but it certainly doesn't hurt) i've been looking on the net for about 8 hours now, and i didn't find a sollution, that's why i try here. thanks! -- harry aka Rik Bobbaers K.U.Leuven - LUDIT -=- Tel: +32 485 52 71 50 [EMAIL PROTECTED] -=- http://people.linux-vserver.org/~harry For all of you reporting a score more than 100 as you iq lol @ you.How can you possibly score more than 100%?
