The box works like a charm, but printing doesn't. The printer connected to it is an Epson Stylus Color 600, hooked to /dev/lpt0. When I print the Windoze test page, it works (lpq happily says the file is 200KB, and it gets printed). However, whenever I try to print some image that is about 1MB in the print queue, the printer prints a small part, and the rest will not be printed. In fact, the entire queue entry is gone! Does anyone know what has caused this? I noticed some stray IRQ 7's, but even if I enable polling mode (using lptcontrol -p), it doesn't work. I need to get this printer working soon. It worked fine using RedHat Linux 6.1. Anyone, please? Thanks! --Rink To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
