wadesmart at wadesmart:~$ ls -l /dev/ttyUSB0
crw-rw---- 1 root lp 188, 0 2009-01-28 08:31 /dev/ttyUSB0


and to Karla and Steve... if I wasnt short of money I would. But this 
was working just fine with the parallel to usb and then I put in new ink 
and it wont work. If I new what was wrong with the parallel to usb I 
would use that but, its causing so many errors and I had this cable - I 
thought why not
