Hello folks I've never managed up to now to make my HP 1005 Multi-Function Printer to react in some manner using different versions of NetBSD, e.g. v2.1, 3.1 or 4.0_BETA2. Particularly I'm interested in the printing function. It's attached over USB and it's using /dev/ulpt0 -- where is appears attached, but doesn't react when I write to it. It neither reacts over /dev/ulpn0. I later found out that these MFP beasts probably only do react using the hplip package (provided by HP) which can be found in pkgsrc-wip. However, the TODO file of the package states that the USB driver needs work. In fact, I couldn't see any reaction up to now. Btw: for the hplip package to work in theory one has to remove the ulpt driver from the kernel -- I have done that on all the boxes running the NetBSD versions mentionned above when testing, but at last without any results despite of the MFP appearing as an ugen0 device, which is wanted. My basic question is: has someone some MFP from HP working on a NetBSD box or even mine specified in the subject line? Thanks! -- hernani
