Hi, I'm trying to setup my HP LaserJet 6L on Woody, (kernel 2.4.17), using CUPS. I have investigated as much as I can, and tried to find info on the web as well, but failed. I enabled the FIFO option and added 'append="parport=auto"' in /etc/lilo.conf. I thought I might have forgotten something while configuring the kernel, but i find this in /var/log/kern.log;
kernel: parport0: PC-style at 0x378 (0x778) [PCSPP,TRISTATE] kernel: parport0: irq 7 detected kernel: parport0: Printer, Hewlett-Packard HP LaserJet 6L which to me seems correct? When using "Print manager" in control panel to set up the printer, it detects it on "parallel:/dev/unknown-parallel0". Why? What am I missing? I'd appriciate some help... ;) Thanks, Pontus
