Hi,

I would like to use my hp laserjet 1300 postscript printer with plan9.
I'm running plan9 under vmware fusion on a macbook and the printer is
connected via usb.

I checked that the printer is visible:

term% usb/probe
ep1.0 roothub csp 0x000009 ports 2 uhci
ep2.0 roothub csp 0x000009 ports 6 ehci
ep3.0 hub csp 0x000009 ports 7 none <nil> uhci
ep4.0 printer csp 0x030107 csp 0x010107 vid 0x03f0 did 0x1017
Hewlett-Packard 'hp LaserJet 1300' uhci

I added the following line to /sys/lib/lp/devices:

laserjet1300    - - /dev/usb/ep4.0/data - post+nohead generic nospool - - - -

Then I tried to print something:

term% lp -dlaserjet1300 /sys/doc/utf.ps
cat: write error copying <stdin>: request timed out

Can somebody tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Best wishes,

James Chapman
