I've not had the chance to test the blacklisting yet, but I have tested
the same printer under windows and os x through the usb-to-parallel
cable, with the same symptoms. Although if I leave a print job in
windows' queue and turn the computer off and back on (I don't know
whether there's an issue with timing of the off vs on action of the PC
to allow capacitors to discharge etc.) windows will successfully print
at least one page (my job was only one page long test print) upon boot-
up, but will then fail to print further documents thereafter. I have
read on the web of other people having problems with this printer and
usb-to-parallel cables because the printer (driver?) requires to be on
the first parallel port labelled LPT1 - I assumed this to be windows-
centric and not affecting Linux due to the difference in device
addressing (devices being addressed through file system operations), but
am now second-guessing this assumption.
