Hi everyone, I am looking for some help setting up a Canon USB Printer
on my Slackware 7.1 system.

I patched and compiled in support for USB to my 2.2.16 kernel and it
seems to be working correctly as the printer is detected on startup and
the /proc/bus/usb filesystem is mounted and ready. (See below)

----------------- /proc/bus/usb/devices -------------------------

T:  Bus=01 Lev=00 Prnt=00 Port=00 Cnt=00 Dev#=  1 Spd=12  MxCh= 2
B:  Alloc=  0/900 us ( 0%), #Int=  0, #Iso=  0
D:  Ver= 1.00 Cls=09(hub  ) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS= 8 #Cfgs=  1
P:  Vendor=0000 ProdID=0000 Rev= 0.00
S:  Product=USB UHCI Root Hub
S:  SerialNumber=ef80
C:* #Ifs= 1 Cfg#= 1 Atr=40 MxPwr=  0mA
I:  If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 1 Cls=09(hub  ) Sub=00 Prot=00 Driver=hub
E:  Ad=81(I) Atr=03(Int.) MxPS=   8 Ivl=255ms
T:  Bus=01 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=01 Cnt=01 Dev#=  2 Spd=12  MxCh= 0
D:  Ver= 1.10 Cls=00(>ifc ) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS= 8 #Cfgs=  1
P:  Vendor=04a9 ProdID=105d Rev= 1.00
S:  Manufacturer=Canon
S:  Product=S450
S:  SerialNumber=B6NEfi
C:* #Ifs= 1 Cfg#= 1 Atr=c0 MxPwr=  2mA
I:  If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 2 Cls=07(print) Sub=01 Prot=02 Driver=usblp
E:  Ad=01(O) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS=  64 Ivl=  0ms
E:  Ad=82(I) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS=  64 Ivl=  0ms

-------------------------------------------------------------------

----------------- /proc/bus/usb/drivers ---------------------------
 0- 15: usblp
         hub
         usbdevfs
-------------------------------------------------------------------

The only thing is, I can't print. Am I missing something obvious? A usb
daemon?

Running lpc status gives me this:

lp:
	queuing is enabled
	printing is enabled
	no entries
	no daemon present

Sorry if that is too much info, any help would be appreciated. Do I need
to symlink /dev/lp to point to a different device?

Thanks for any help you can give.
