RE: lp and Debian 2.0
I had problems with a similar setup (HP660C i.s.o. 890C). Nothing worked
until I used magicfilterconfig to create the printer while the Zip was
disconnected. I can now print, but have not yet tried if the Zip still
works.

Subject: lp and Debian 2.0
I recently switched my P75 from RedHat 5.1 (the upgrade to 5.2 killed a
variety of things) to Official Debian 2.0 R1. I have a HP Deskjet 890C
and a Parallel port zip drive plugged in series into the first parallel
port. When I set it up originally, I made lp as a module, but when the
system boots up it says that there is no device. I haven't gotten around
to upgrading things to print, but before I get everything the way I want
it, I want to make sure that making lp a module is a good idea. Should I
start over? Do I need to pass some sort of parameters to the module via
conf.modules? I know it's at 0x378, and I suspect it's irq=7. Thank you
very much! You'll save me a lot of trouble later!
