I am having this issue on gentoo-sources 2.6.17-r4: |

My HP 710C parallel port printer is not being detected. |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
This used to work on my system before, but then I had the 2.6.16-r9 |
| 7 |
kernel and since them I had to re-install my Gentoo. I tried |
| 8 |
re-compiling the 2.6.16-r9 kernel using a backed up config, but it |
| 9 |
doesn't seem to detect my printer anymore. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
I tried a recent Ubuntu live cd 6.06 and it successfully detected my printer. |

current dmesg: |

I am very sure I enabled all the proper kernel things as described by |
| 31 |
the printing guide. I also enabled PNP as suggested by someone |
| 32 |
(http://gentoo-wiki.com/HP_Deskjet_720C_with_CUPS): |

Has anyone experienced similar problems? |
| 64 |
|
| 65 |
I would like to report this a kernel bug, but since I couldn't get the |
| 66 |
previous working kernel to work this time, I can't do that. |

Thanks. |
