ulpt1 at uhub2 port 2 configuration 1 interface 0
ulpt1: HewLett Packard HP LaserJet 1200, rev 1.10/1.00, addr 5, iclass 7/1
ulpt1: using bi-directional mode

I wonder if this is my problem, too.. how do I check which endpoint ulpn
is using?  How do I fix the endpoint number, if it's 3?

I would really like to retire my 15-year-old (I think) Canon LBP-8 II
because it's very slow with Ghostscript and because I can wipe the ink
off the sheets with my fingers :) :(

Thanks,
