Hi, I've installed SuSE enterprise desktop 10 y my HP Laserjet 6L doesn't works. YaST2 detects it, test page can be printed correctry but when I restart the computer it stops working. After a restart: diamante:/ # lsmod | grep parport parport_pc 34916 0 parport 31944 1 parport_pc CUPS information at: http://localhost:631 Descripción: Hewlett-Packard HP LaserJet 6L.

and it starts printing all pending jobs.
Notice that the first time it is using IRQ 7, the second time IRQ 5. My guess is that you have incorrect info in the /etc/modprobe.* files, perhaps duplicate entries.

I've found the solution. lp module must be loaded. Gabriel Dovalo escribió:

Now, I run: YaST2 > Hardware > Printer (nothing more) ... and it starts printing all pending jobs.
"YaST2 > Hardware > Printer" reloads the parport-related modules or parallel port printer autodetection, see http://lists.suse.com/archive/suse-linux-e/2005-Nov/1206.html Perhaps the "lp" module is not automatically loaded on your system. Do (as root) modprobe lp to load it manually. Make sure that all parallel port related kernel modules are loaded: parport, parport_pc, lp, and optionally ppdev. lsmod | egrep '^parport|^lp|^ppdev' must list at least parport, parport_pc, and lp. As a workaround to force loading of the "lp" module: Either add the "modprobe lp" command to /etc/init.d/boot.local (which is the old-stlye way) or add "lp" to MODULES_LOADED_ON_BOOT in /etc/sysconfig/kernel (which is the new-stlye way).
