Hi Martin,
See the thread of mine below. I was gettign similar output to these commands as
you are. I think the crucial step was changing the chown/chmod of /dev/usb/lp0
as describer by Till Kampeter in an earlier post:
chmod 660 /dev/usb/lp0
chown lp.sys /dev/usb/lp0
I now get:
[root at localhost liam]# ls -l /dev/usb/lp0
crw-rw---- 1 lp sys 180, 0 Feb 23 2004 /dev/usb/lp0
Liam.
