Setting up my USB Printer.
Hi everyone, I am looking for some help setting up a Canon USB Printer
on my Slackware 7.1 system.
I patched and compiled in support for USB to my 2.2.16 kernel and it
seems to be working correctly as the printer is detected on startup and
the /proc/bus/usb filesystem is mounted and ready. (See below)
----------------- /proc/bus/usb/devices -------------------------
T: Bus=01 Lev=00 Prnt=00 Port=00 Cnt=00 Dev#= 1 Spd=12 MxCh= 2
B: Alloc= 0/900 us ( 0%), #Int= 0, #Iso= 0
D: Ver= 1.00 Cls=09(hub ) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS= 8 #Cfgs= 1
P: Vendor=0000 ProdID=0000 Rev= 0.00
S: Product=USB UHCI Root Hub
S: SerialNumber=ef80
C:* #Ifs= 1 Cfg#= 1 Atr=40 MxPwr= 0mA
I: If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 1 Cls=09(hub ) Sub=00 Prot=00 Driver=hub
E: Ad=81(I) Atr=03(Int.) MxPS= 8 Ivl=255ms
T: Bus=01 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=01 Cnt=01 Dev#= 2 Spd=12 MxCh= 0
D: Ver= 1.10 Cls=00(>ifc ) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS= 8 #Cfgs= 1
P: Vendor=04a9 ProdID=105d Rev= 1.00
S: Manufacturer=Canon

S: SerialNumber=B6NEfi

I: If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 2 Cls=07(print) Sub=01 Prot=02 Driver=usblp
E: Ad=01(O) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS= 64 Ivl= 0ms
E: Ad=82(I) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS= 64 Ivl= 0ms
-------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------- /proc/bus/usb/drivers ---------------------------
0- 15: usblp
hub
usbdevfs
-------------------------------------------------------------------
The only thing is, I can't print. Am I missing something obvious? A usb
daemon?
Running lpc status gives me this:
lp:
queuing is enabled
printing is enabled
no entries
no daemon present
Sorry if that is too much info, any help would be appreciated. Do I need
to symlink /dev/lp to point to a different device?
Thanks for any help you can give.
