Yes i've tried it. Still the same:
insmod lp
echo "coucou" >/dev/lp0 ...it prints
echo "coucou" >/dev/lp0 ...it prints
echo "coucou" >/dev/lp0 ...it prints
....
insmod ppa
echo "coucou" >/dev/lp0 lp0 is Offline
.... switch off switch on zip drive:
echo "coucou" >/dev/lp0 ...it prints
ppa driver uses 32bits EPP
My printer is CANON BJ10SX
