| Is your printer "seen": connect it and switch iton, then type (as
| root) the command:
|
| lsusb
|
| You should see something like this:
|
| Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 Bus 001 Device 002: ID 03f0:0e17
| Hewlett-Packard
|
| (03f0:0e17 is the id of vendor and printer, so, it may be different
| for you)

No, the printer is not seen - the command "lsusb" returns nothing.

Please also see my reply of yesterday afternoon giving further details
as requsted.
