is the epson stylus 640 supported? the reason i ask is bec. ive
been laboring on getting the thing to work for the longest of time. hte
printer works as long as i print ascii texts otherwise it does nothing.
can anyone help?

here's what i've done so far.

1. built the kernel w/ parport support
2. added these lines to /etc/conf.modules:
alias parport_lowlevel parport_pc
options parport_pc io=0x378 irq=7
3. loaded the lp and parport_probe modules:
   insmod lp=parport0
   insmod parport_probe

below is a copy of my printcap:
##PRINTTOOL3## LOCAL uniprint NAxNA letter {} U_EpsonStylusColor stc600p 1
lp:\
        :sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp:\
        :mx#0:\
        :sh:\
        :lp=/dev/lp0:\
        :if=/var/spool/lpd/lp/filter:

i'd be grateful for any assistance. thanks.
