Printing Problems on Ultra 30



While I've had some progress with trying to make my Ultra 30 print,
I've had no real success.  What I have done so far is
adding the modules, parport_pc and lp.  I have also
did MAKEDEV par, MAKEDEV parport, and MAKEDEV lp.
During the installation of the parport_pc module,
I get the following messages:
parport0: PC-style at 0x1fff13043bc (0x1fff13047bc), irq 7039808, dma 0
[PCSPP,T
RISTATE,COMPAT,ECP,DMA]
parport0: Printer, EPSON Stylus COLOR 800

During lp installation (I think), I get the following:
lp0: using parport0 (interrupt-driven).

When I try running the following (cat textfile.txt > /dev/lp0),
I get the following:
lp0: compatibility mode
DMA write timed out

The last message repeats until I hit CTRL-C.

I installed printtool, but it is not able to
autodetect any printers, and it even question
if I have added the parport module (which I have
by this point).

Any suggestions?
