OK, will try it.
I just noticed that my paste didn't go through... Here are
some more details about the issue...
#BUS="usb",SYSFS{serial}="L65010107020813520",NAME="lp_c40ux",SYMLINK="printers/c40ux"
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/20050318$ ls -l /dev/printers/c40ux
#lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 2005-03-17 23:47
/dev/printers/c40ux -> ../lp_c40ux
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/20050318$ ls -l /dev/lp_c40ux
#crw-rw---- 1 root root 180, 1 2005-03-17 23:47 /dev/lp_c40ux
#the above works nicely but mtink doesnt like it. So we make sure we provide a
more conventional name
BUS="usb",SYSFS{serial}="L65010107020813520",NAME="usb/lp0",SYMLINK="printers/c40ux"
