Re: [Epsonepl-users] USB support for EPL-5800L, any good news ????

[Hin-Tak L. <hin...@ya...>]

Hmm, I believe the 5800L doesn't require special
consideration for USB support. i.e. if your kernel
is relatively recent, and you have the relevant
module loaded, you should be able to
print to a USB-connected 5800L using /dev/usb/lp0,
instead of /dev/lp0 (for parallel port).

type "lsmod" to check your kernel's usb support;
you should see one of {uhci, usb-ohci, usb-uhci},
(which one of these three is hardware dependent),
"usbcore", and "printer". The 2nd one is autoloaded
if you load the first one correctly. (try modprobe each in
turn - you should see a success-line in your /var/log/syslog
if it is correct).
