Cannot access USB printer port for HP OfficeJet V40 - no such device

["Pekka K. Kurki" <Pekka.Kurki@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I have an HP OfficeJet V40 - working OK with Win2000 - but I'd like to 
run it under RH9 as a printer. My problem:

Printer config program (RedHat) states "Unable to open USB device 
"usb:/dev/usb/lp0": No such device"  I don't know why. Here some infos 
about the system:

dmesg states:

...

usb.c: registered new driver hub
usb-uhci.c: $Revision: 1.275 $ time 17:59:01 Mar 13 2003

...


lp0: using parport0 (polling).
lp0: console ready
usb.c: registered new driver usblp
printer.c: v0.11: USB Printer Device Class driver

and finally:

cat test.txt > /dev/usb/lp0
bash: /dev/usb/lp0: No such device

Any ideas?

br,
Pekka
