Greatly modified COL 3.1, 2.4.17 kernel, CUPS 1.1.18, Canon S900 printer,
Turboprint driver, USB connection. Nothing prints.
First, ran "mknod /dev/usb/lp0 180 0". Then, added "printer" to
/etc/modules/default". Everything I can think of looks alright. CUPS
shows the printer with no errors reported. "lpc status" ditto.
/proc/bus/usb/devices shows the Canon. lsmod lists both printer and
usbcore used by [printer usb-uhci usb-storage]. /var/log/messages has the
printer properly recognized. "lspci -v" has the usb stuff OK.
var/log/cups/error-log shows nothing untoward, I don't think. Just
repeated msgs:

"Canon_S900 TurboPrint"
I don't know what else to check. Any advice, pointers, appreciated.
Thanks.
