Hey Mike, I am having the same problem under HP Photosmart 1215. Sorry I don't have an answer for you. But I noticed that we have one thing in common, the device is more than just a printer. The Photosmart accepts memory cards from Camera's and the like and can be used as a removable drive. For anybody reading this that might be able to debug the ulpt support, I wonder if ulpt cannot recognize the printer because of this. (I will try to debug this, but I'm new to FreeBSD and also spending most of my time trying to become re-employed :-). ~Rik * Mike Pritchard (mpp@mppsystems.com) [020127 13:58]: > I've been trying to get a usb printer running under FreeBSD (5.0-current > as of today, but I have the same problem on another machine running > a 9 month old -current). > > The printer in question is an HP OfficeJet K60 (printer/fax/scanner/copier). > > It is always recognized as a generic device (ugen), and not as a printer > (ulpt).
