Try changing the URI to usb:/dev/usb/lp0 and check that ls -als /dev/usb/lp0 gives
0 crw-rw---- 1 root lp 180, 0 Sep 24 02:55 /dev/usb/lp0
this is interesting both uri's exist: richard@dar:/dev > ls -l usblp0 crw-rw---- 1 root lp 180, 0 May 21 14:21 usblp0 richard@dar:/dev > cd usb richard@dar:/dev/usb > ls -l lp0 crw-rw---- 1 root lp 180, 0 May 21 14:21 lp0
The 180 and 0 matter.
They don't seem to be linked. How and where can I change the URI? I installed the printer using yast2... Are /dev/usblp0 and /dev/usb/lp0 different devices?
