cat bug?

[Aivaras Kondrotas]

Can anybody explain me if cat command is different in
Freebsd than in other linux/unix/bsd os'es, because
this problem appear just in Freebsd.

I am running a FreeBSD 6.0. To get working my printer
I have to upgrade my firmware, but
I get problem "cat: stdout: Input/output error".

Searched for days in google, but it appears that all
results leads to just Freebsd OS.
Do I have to switch OS just to make my printer work?
