Hello,
I have old matrix printer Epson LQ-100+. And under the KNOPPIX-5.1.1 it prints very well and comparativly fast.
I ran CUPS and my printer was automaticaly detected (screenshot1).
It's output of "lpinfo":
| Code: |
# lpinfo -v
network socket
network beh
network http
network ipp
network lpd
direct parallel:/dev/lp0
direct canon:/dev/lp0
direct epson:/dev/lp0
file cups-pdf:/
network smb

So, I rebooted to gentoo.
| Code: |
uname -a
Linux localhost 2.6.23-gentoo-r9 #1 PREEMPT Tue Mar 18 14:25:01 EET 2008 x86_64 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3000+ AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux

CUPS starts on the boot, but my printer isn't detected.
| Code: |
# lpinfo -v
network socket
network beh
network http
network ipp
network lpd
direct parallel:/dev/lp0
direct scsi
serial serial:/dev/ttyS0?baud=115200

There are no direct epson:/dev/lp0 node wich is needed.
I tryed to compile the 2.6.19 kernel with KNOPPIX's config (/proc/config.gz). And there are no "direct" nodes at all 
If I choose the "parallel:/dev/lp0" printer prints veeeery slow.
What can I do?
ps Sorry for my English. |
