Printing now works again, after I disconnected the cheap parallel port
scanner attached to the same port as the printer. Seems the parport module
handles this in another way than the old 2.0 kernels because they did not
have problems to shuffle the print data through the scanner first as the
2.2 ha

Have you changed /etc/printcap entries to reflect the change from
lp1, as used in the 2.0.34 Kernel, to the lp0 used in the 2.2.x

Hi all,
I upgraded from kernel 2.0.34 to kernel 2.2.4 which came on my
Debian-CDs. Now printing has stopped. I compiled lp and parport
as modules, changed the printcap to point to /dev/lp0 instead of
lp1. The printer (Nec Silentwriter2 S60P - Postscript) seems to
get some data because it display
