I have a Epson 785epx USB printer. I cannot get this thing to work at all, I am running RH 7.2, KDE 2.2, kernel 2.4.7-10. I have USB enabled. I have a PCI USB 2.0 card made by Opti.inc which is found on startup. I had my Olympus digital camera hooked up to the card ant it was found, I was able to d/l pictures off the camera with no problem.
usb.c: registered new driver usbdevfs
usb.c: registered new driver hub
PCI: Found IRQ 11 for device 00:0d.0
PCI: Sharing IRQ 11 with 00:09.0
usb-ohci.c: USB OHCI at membase 0xd48a3000, IRQ 11

usb.c: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 1

usb-ohci.c: v5.2:USB OHCI Host Controller Driver
I have USB modules installed
usb-ohci 18608 0 (unused)
usbcore 51808 1 [printer usb-ohci]
When I type in dmesg it finds the printer
printer.c: v0.8:USB Printer Device Class driver
hub.c: USB new device connect on bus1/1, assigned device number 2
hub.c: USB hub found

hub.c: USB new device connect on bus1/1/2, assigned device number 4
usb.c: USB device 4 (vend/prod 0x4b8/0x602) is not claimed by any active driver.
I tried to configure the printer through printerconf. I had it scan devices and it found the printer at /dev/usb/lp0. I used epson photo driver and get ?there was an error printing test page " when I try to print a test page. Same error when using text only driver.I also tried using apsfilter using the gimp-print driver for the 785epx. I get the following
Printer escp2-785 is not a known model
****Unable to open initial device, quitting
real 0w0,547
user 0w0,100s
sys 0w0,010s
What am I doing wrong? Is this prnter not at all compatible? Any help is appricatied
Thanks in advance
