 |
|
I'm trying to get a usb printer set up with 2.6-test7. What modules
do i have to load to make it happen? USB support is definitely
working, because I get messages in /var/log/messages when i plug it
in, but it doesn't seem to recognize that it's a printer.
This is the output of lsmod:
usblp 13312 0
uhci_hcd 32272 0
natsemi 25504 0
parport_pc 24552 1
lp 9984 0
parport 29088 2 parport_pc,lp
usbcore 111964 4 usblp,uhci_hcd
ide_scsi 15104 0
I'm led to believe that I should expect something like this:
| Code: |
hub.c: USB new device connect on bus2/2, assigned device number 2
printer.c: usblp0: USB bidirectional printer dev 2 if 0 alt 1 proto 2
vid 0x03F0 pid 0x1104
in /var/log/messages (that's 2.4 text, so it may be different now).
|
Instead, I get:
| Code: |
Oct 20 19:44:29 localhost kernel: hub 2-0:1.0: new USB device on port
1, assigned address 4
Oct 20 19:44:29 localhost kernel: hub 2-0:1.0: new USB device on port
1, assigned address 5
|
Any ideas? I don't get anything at all in /dev/usb (I'm running
devfs, by the way). /proc/bus/usb contains the 001, 002, and 003
directories. /proc/bus/usb/devices contains:

None of these entries indicate that a printer is attached, however.
Any help at all would be appreciated.
TIA,

There is a tutorial somewhere in this forum i used to get my printer going.Do a search and see if you can find it.
Here's my lsmod output:
Module Size Used by Tainted: P
sr_mod 18584 0 (autoclean) (unused)
ehci-hcd 15240 0 (unused)
nvidia 1465888 11
printer 7520 0 (unused)
i810_audio 25128 0
ac97_codec 11176 0 [i810_audio]
hid 19588 0 (unused)
mousedev 4340 1
input 3648 0 [hid mousedev]
usb-ohci 19272 0 (unused)
usbcore 40512 0 [ehci-hcd printer hid usb-ohci]
sis900 14572 1
ide-scsi 8848 0
I know the usb-ohci module is my optical mouse so ignore that one.
I also emerged cups,gimp-print and used kde's control panel to set it up.
I also had to download a driver for my Epson stylus photo 810 called Epson-Stylus_Photo_810-gimp-print-ijs.ppd which i had tp put in /usr/share/cups/model
Then if i remember right you have to "rc-update add cups default" (I think) If i'm wrong someone will correct me.
