by My kernel does not recognize the printer on /dev/lp0 at boot up when
the printer is powered on, but it works fine with the printer powered
off during boot up and then turn the printer on. With the printer ON
during bootup it says "lp_init: no devices found" or something like
that, and ith the printer off it gives the usual "/dev/lp0 (using
polling driver). Does anyone know why this could be. Here's the
configuration: Compaq Presario 850 with an HP Laserjet IIIp on
/dev/lp0 (LPT1: in DOS, address 0x03BC, IRQ 7), Kernel version 1.0.9.
Can I solve this by upgrading to a newer kernel, or have I bungled
something somewhere?
