Interesting.  I wonder if the same applies to the OfficeJet.  I have a
d145, and while FreeBSD recognizes it just fine, and attaches it as a
ulpt device, it fails to print (the process that tries to write to
/dev/ulpt0 just hangs).  I'll see if I can figure out a way to force
the ulpt driver to bind to 7/1/2.
