Requesting usblp kernel module for usb printing

fzsolt · May 30, 2018, 2:34pm

Hello resin team,

we would like to use a thermal printer in a multi-container environment with file mode printing. However /dev/usb/lpX is not present on the host os.

dmesg output when unplugging, then replugging the usb device:

The device also disappears, then reappears when listing usb devices with lsusb.

When listing loadable kernel modules, usblp is not present:
find /lib/modules/$(uname -r) -type f -name '*.ko' | grep usblp

Could you please add usblp module in a later version of ResinOS,
or can you suggest any other way to print into file?

Thank you very much in advance!
