Under IBM PC DOS 7.0 using the word processor NOTA BENE the EPSON printer on the parallel port correctly prints a file. Under DEBIAN 2.2r3 loaded from a 3 cdrom set the command lptest 36 7 > /dev/lp0 and /dev/lp1 /dev/lp2 returns bash: /dev/lp0, /dev/lp1 /dev/lp2 no such device. The access modes for lp0 and lp1 are crw-rw---- and for lp2 is crwS--S---. lp0, lp1 and lp2 are in the /dev directory. The lptest 36 7 prints 7 rows of 36 characters on the crt. Today I upgraded from 2.2r2 to 2.2r3. It did not help. 2.2r3 has xwindows running and ppp works to connect, seems to be working ok but not seeing the parallel port. Computer i386 P-II 450 mghz processor, Intel motherboard. Please email help. Your effort is much appreciated.
