I changed the io port with insmod parport_pc to 6500. the contents of
/proc/parport/1 are now
[[root@big 1]# more autoprobe
CLASS:PRINTER;
MODEL:Stylus COLOR 600;
MANUFACTURER:EPSON;
COMMAND SET:ESCPL2,BDC;
[[root@big 1]#
but when i try to print the computer locks up and i have to just turn
it off. i had used lisa to set up the printer. i thought maybe i should
run lisa --printer again, but it only sets it up with the three standard
io ports. is it not possible for linux to use 6500 to print? or is
there somewhere else i need to change that manually? it is in the
parport modules as 6500 and also in /etc/modules.conf
alias parport_lowlevel parport_pc
options parport_pc io=0x378,0x6500 irq=auto,10
thanks for the help,
Robin
