I meant to copy this to the list. Has anybody had any experience with the
OfficeJet LX?

Hi, Klaus. I'm copying this to the hpoj-devel mailing list in case anybody
else knows more about this model than I do.
I have no experience with the OfficeJet LX, so I don't know for sure whether
it can be supported. Several months ago I exchanged e-mails with somebody
else who asked the same question, and after he performed some diagnostics
I suggested, it looked like it wouldn't work. Try the following suggestion
from the FAQ page (which I need to improve):
> On Linux Kernel 2.2.x, type
> $ cat /proc/parport/0/autoprobe
> On Linux Kernel 2.3.x, type
> $ cat /proc/sys/dev/parport/parport0/autoprobe
> If the output contains the
> string MLC (probably in the "COMMAND SET" or "CMD" field), then it is
> likely that your printer is supported by our driver.
This retrieves a somewhat "cooked" version of the device ID string of the
peripheral. Alternatively, you could try Tim Waugh's "deviceid" program
available at "ftp://people.redhat.com/twaugh/parport/deviceid-0.3.tar.gz".
Let me know what output you get.
