Gentlemen:
I have installed FreeBSD Power Pak Ver.4.2 in my PC, and now
I am in the process of configuring my Printer. According to FreeBSD
Handbook I tried to find itf the kernel supports parallel interface, for
this I used the command: # dmesg | grep lpt0 the answer I get is:
lpt0: <PRINTER> on ppbus0 in the first line. lpt0: Interrupt-driven
port in the second line.
From the FreeBSD Book, I tried Testing the Printer: I used the
command line # lptest > /dev/lpt0, I get no reaction to the status
display.
I also tried Configuring # /etc/printcap, the response i get is:
/etc/printcap: Permission denied.
I wish you could help me with this problem. I look forward to your
answers.
Al. Saavedra.
