Hello Everybody,
I have the following problem with printing in ECP
parallel port and was hoping that someone might be
able to help me to resolve it.
When I set ECP port in BIOS and compile the kernel
(2.4.18-5) to use FIFO/PIO printing does not work.
Well, actually, the printer prints text files, but
skips some characters. If I use dma=none to switch
to PIO mode, I get the same result. However, if I
switch in BIOS to EPP port, the printing works fine.
I also have a parallel port SuperDisk drive, which
works if ECP is selected in BIOS.
If SuperDisk uses ECP protocol, I would definitely
like to make printing possible in ECP mode, if not,
I am ready switch to EPP in BIOS and that is all.
Thank you very much
Lazar
