I can't print and I found this in the logs:

Dec 9 16:10:49 ozob kernel: parport0: Nibble timeout at event 9 (0 bytes)
Dec 9 16:11:29 ozob last message repeated 4 times
Dec 9 16:12:39 ozob last message repeated 7 times
Dec 9 16:13:40 ozob last message repeated 6 times

If I reboot, then I can print for a while and then this repeats.

Can anyone tell me what this means and what to do about it?

kernel: 2.4.0-test12-pre7 (same problem with pre3)
cpu: intel 686
printer: hp4500
kernel setup:
CONFIG_PARPORT=y
CONFIG_PARPORT_PC=y
CONFIG_PARPORT_PC_FIFO=y
CONFIG_PARPORT_PC_SUPERIO=y
# CONFIG_PARPORT_AMIGA is not set
# CONFIG_PARPORT_MFC3 is not set
# CONFIG_PARPORT_ATARI is not set
# CONFIG_PARPORT_SUNBPP is not set
# CONFIG_PARPORT_OTHER is not set
CONFIG_PARPORT_1284=y

CONFIG_PRINTER=y

I can supply any information necessary.

Thanks,
