I would just ask the status with a control message with libusb or usbfs. I do not think I have ever seen a printer that threw a tantrum due to controls overlapping, so it should be completely safe to do at any time, even if the printer is printing. The control endpoint is shareable by definition, so you should be able to request the status even while usblp is bound to an interface. -- Pete ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
