USB Printer

Hi,

Anything I tried caused the system to lock up. Here are some examples

konrad at localhost /home/konrad # lptest > /dev/ulpt0
^C
konrad at localhost /home/konrad # ls > /dev/ulpt0
^C
konrad at localhost /home/konrad # cat /etc/cvsupfile > /dev/ulpt0
^C

So it means that my printer is a winprinter?


Thanks!
