Hi, FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE, cups-1.1.23.0_1, HP 1100 LaserJet I've found quite a bit of information about how to deal with: "Interrupt storm detected in "irq7:"; throttling interrupt source" Problem is, it's a little confusing. From what I've gathered, the options are: Use the BIOS to set the printer port to ECP, Use lptcontrol to set the port to polled mode, Use device.hints to do both IIRC, in the past, I have used lptcontrol to set polled mode, but that resulted in: "too many stray irq7's, not logging any more" Can anyone suggest a method to make both "interrupt storm" and "too many stray irq7's" go away? -- Thanks, Charles http://bubbabbq.homeunix.net
