  under /proc/scsi I find epst and scsi cat'ing scsi I get:

  Attached devices:
  Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00
  Vendor: HP Model: C7190A Rev: 3846
  Type: Processor ANSI SCSI revision: 02

  cat'ing epst/0 I get:

  ident: epst 0.92 (0.92), Shuttle EPST
  base port: 0x378
  mode: 0
  mode name: Nybble
  delay: 1
  nice: 0
  verbose: 0
  quiet: 0
  tot_cmds: 31
  tot_bytes: 584
  tot_errs: 0
  parport device: parport0
  claimed: 0

  I think that hp.conf may be screwed up it currently says:

  /dev/scanner

  /dev/scsi0

  Any thoughts?
