I have had my Epson Stylus 680 (usb) set up on this computer before (redhat and mandrake). Having set up a device node as per the USB-printer howto, and set the printer up in CUPS as per the CUPS howto, I send printjobs... but nothing comes out. I'm using the same .upp driver, usb-printer support is compiled into the kernel (2.4.18)...
I can't think of what to check. *highly frustrated at USB* Any thoughts?
Use the parallel port!
I have an Epson Stylus Photo 750 which works perfectly with Cups. Originally it was plugged into the parallel port, now it's got a DLink ethernet print server plugged into it.
Do your PC's have Via chipsets? I've never had any success with USB and VIA.
