Hi I have a HP PSC 2175 printer USB, I have installed from ports cups, hpoj and libusb. ( FreeBSD 5.3-RC2 ) My printer is detected : venus# dmesg | grep ulpt ulpt0: Hewlett-Packard PSC 2170 Series, rev 2.00/1.00, addr 3, iclass 255/204 ulpt0: using bi-directional mode To configure cups I must before configure hpoj driver but ptal-init script fails to find my printer venus# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/020.ptal-init.sh.sample setup Stopping the HP OfficeJet Linux driver. ..... Probe for USB-connected devices ([y]/n)? y Probing "%/dev/usb0%/dev/ugen0"... No device found. ..... Starting the HP OfficeJet Linux driver. No hpoj devices have been configured. As root, run "/usr/local/etc/rc.d/020.ptal-init.sh setup". In /var/log/messages, i can see : Nov 3 10:37:33 venus ptal-mlcd: SYSLOG at ExMgr.cpp:652, dev=<mlc:usb:probe>, pid=19133, e=2, t=1099474653 ptal-mlcd successfully initialized. Nov 3 10:37:33 venus ptal-mlcd: SYSLOG at ExMgr.cpp:652, dev=<mlc:usb:probe>, pid=19140, e=61, t=1099474653 ptal-mlcd successfully initialized. Nov 3 10:37:33 venus ptal-mlcd: ERROR at ExMgr.cpp:2525, dev=<mlc:usb:probe>, pid=19140, e=22, t=1099474653 Couldn't find device! I suspect a problem with the version of the ports of libusb. On the mailing list of the driver hpoj, it is indicated on several occasions that it is necessary used the last version of libusb so that hpoj functions under FreeBSD. The ports version of libusb is 0.1.7_1, and the official webiste of libusb : "The current stable version of libusb is 0.1.8. This release fixes a variety of bugs on all platforms and compile problems on BSD platforms. It is highly reccomended to use this version." Why libusb is not upgraded?. An upgrade could break other ports ? Thanks for your help PS : sorry for my bad english
