Make sure your kernel is compiled for it. Here is a snip from the kernel config file -> # USB Stuff device usb device uhci device ulpt Depending on your usb chipset you may have to change uhci to ohci. At first I tried a combo of apsfilter and LPRng, but it wasn't giving me any love. I started using CUPS today, and Im getting good results so far with an HP DeskJet 640C. I just need to get windows to print to it and Im golden... Good Luck...
