Subject: how to set polling mode as default for lpt?

Hello...

I am running FreeBSD 3.1, and the new printer driver is default set to 
interrupt mode. Cause there are always some data missing when printing 
with interrupt mode, I'd like to use polling as the default.

When using lptcontrol in /etc/rc.local to set printer mode, it works 
only if the printer is powered on. How can I set the nlpt device in kernel 
config file to make the polling mode the default?

Thanks.
