Thanks a lot ctsdownloads. I hope you will follow up again.
With respect to your last post. Doesn't do anything for me, and lp is already in my /etc/modules and is listed at lsmod, so it is loaded.
dmesg however returned an interesting result. First dmesg | tail before turning printer on.
Code:
lars@lars-desktop:~$ dmesg | tail

Now I turn the printer on:
Code:
lars@lars-desktop:~$ dmesg | tail

Turn on printer 2. time.

Clearly something is going on in the dmesg.
Sadly lsusb still shows no trace of my printer.
Code:
lars@lars-desktop:~$ lsusb

I don't know. What's this line from the first time printer is turned on?
Code:
[ 711.612639] usbcore: registered new interface driver usblp
What is usblp, is that the module lp? Oh it's in my lsmod along with lp:
Code:
lars@lars-desktop:~$ lsmod |grep lp
usblp 15136 0
lp 11908 0
parport 40528 3 ppdev,lp,parport_pc
Hmmm. ctsdownloads? Anyone?
