Hi,
I have encountered some difficulties in
printing with recent kernels. This is after a
long successful experience with 2.2.16.
The hardware is detected however I cannot print.
Here is the relevant part from dmesg:
parport0: PC-style at 0x378 (0x778) [SPP,ECP,ECPEPP,ECPPS2]
parport0: detected irq 7; use procfs to enable interrupt-driven operation.
parport_probe: succeeded
parport0: Printer, EPSON Stylus COLOR 900
lp0: using parport0 (polling).
parport0: PC-style at 0x378 (0x778) [SPP,ECP,ECPEPP,ECPPS2]
parport0: detected irq 7; use procfs to enable interrupt-driven operation.
parport_probe: succeeded
parport0: Printer, EPSON Stylus COLOR 900
lp0: using parport0 (polling).
parport0: PC-style at 0x378 (0x778), irq 7 [SPP,ECP,ECPEPP,ECPPS2]
parport_probe: succeeded
parport0: Printer, EPSON Stylus COLOR 900
lp0: using parport0 (interrupt-driven).
Writing to the /dev/lp0 results in nothing.
Here is the response to lsmod:

parport_probe 3392 0 (autoclean)

And here is some info from /proc/parport/0/*
