1.

check that the printer is connected :

Code:

debian:/dev# cat /var/log/messages |grep printer
Jul 21 13:57:08 localhost kernel: drivers/usb/class/usblp.c: usblp0: USB Bidirectional printer dev 3 if 1 alt 0 proto 2 vid 0x043D pid 0x00B2
Jul 21 14:01:40 localhost kernel: drivers/usb/class/usblp.c: usblp0: USB Bidirectional printer dev 3 if 1 alt 0 proto 2 vid 0x043D pid 0x00B2
debian:/dev# cat /var/log/messages |grep usblp
Jul 21 13:57:08 localhost kernel: drivers/usb/class/usblp.c: usblp0: USB Bidirectional printer dev 3 if 1 alt 0 proto 2 vid 0x043D pid 0x00B2
Jul 21 13:57:08 localhost kernel: usbcore: registered new driver usblp
Jul 21 13:57:08 localhost kernel: drivers/usb/class/usblp.c: v0.13: USB Printer Device Class driver
Jul 21 14:01:40 localhost kernel: drivers/usb/class/usblp.c: usblp0: USB Bidirectional printer dev 3 if 1 alt 0 proto 2 vid 0x043D pid 0x00B2
Jul 21 14:01:40 localhost kernel: usbcore: registered new driver usblp
Jul 21 14:01:40 localhost kernel: drivers/usb/class/usblp.c: v0.13: USB Printer Device Class driver
debian:/dev#

i have a LEXMARK 8350 printer that won't print too because of no driver support. i found the the lexmark website has a developers general driver package for download (http://www.lexmark.com/). i didn't download it cause i don't have enough experience to work with the source files like that. i know attempting would be a disaster and i would just make a mess of things. and i have enough food on my linux dish already. i would be interested to know if someone was able to get them to work though.
