Problem with HP 690C

# ptal-init setup

Probe parallel port "-base 0x378 -basehigh 0x778 -device /dev/lp0" (y/[n])?  y

    *** Found "DESKJET 690C" but failed to communicate with it!
    *** Elapsed time for this attempt was 0 second(s).
    *** Check syslog file for ptal-mlcd error messages.

Re: Problem with HP 690C

Did you load the modules for the parallel port? They are parport_pc and parport

Re: Problem with HP 690C

ptal-init setup befor 1st post

Probe for parallel-connected devices ([y]/n)?  

Successfully loaded kernel module "lp" for the device probe.

Warning: Probing incorrect I/O port addresses could result in system
instability and/or data loss!  Consult your hardware documentation, BIOS
setup and/or kernel messages to verify correct base addresses in the
following prompts.   Also, take care not to probe parallel ports that
have non-printer devices (such as disk or tape drives) connected.
