+<PRE>Hello,
+
+My wife is trying to use a Xyron Wishblade in Linux with the
+graphtecprint program (<A HREF="http://vidar.botfu.org/graphtecprint">http://vidar.botfu.org/graphtecprint</A>). It
+looks like the program accesses /dev/usb/lp* directly, which no longer
+exists.
+
+Is there a different device that it can open? I tried /dev/lp* and
+the actual usb device from /dev/bus/usb, but opening the device
+failed:
+
+Traceback (most recent call last):
+ File &quot;./graphtecprint-1.0.1/graphtecprint&quot;, line 422, in &lt;module&gt;
+ dialog.on_rescan_clicked()
+ File &quot;./graphtecprint-1.0.1/graphtecprint&quot;, line 178, in on_rescan_clicked
+ scanprinters()
+ File &quot;./graphtecprint-1.0.1/graphtecprint&quot;, line 349, in scanprinters
+ id = getprinterident(dev)
+ File &quot;./graphtecprint-1.0.1/graphtecprint&quot;, line 68, in getprinterident
+ x = fcntl.ioctl(f.fileno(), 0x84005001, '\x00' * 256)
+IOError: [Errno 1] Operation not permitted
+
+I haven't modified the permissions of the device yet, but I don't
+think that's the problem. I couldn't get usb_printerid to work on any
+devices either.
+
+Thank you,
+
+Jeff
