sorry to bother for something maybe-not-really-on-topic, but I couldnt
find any answer around...

NetBSD reports my canon lbp800 on local lpt0 always in idle state... I
can lpr, but the job stops in the queue, waiting for lpt0 to become
ready (as lpc/lpq says)

since there are no online/ready buttons or whateverelse similar (the
printer is just supposed to always be online), is there something Im
missing about lpt settings? maybe in the bios? uh..

thnx
