Thanks for the help regarding finding a copy of the kernel howto. I
found and read the howto and DRobbins' tutorial on IBM Developerworks as
well as the modules mini-howto.

I might be dense, but am I correct in understanding that I have to
re-compile my kernel to compile the missing usb printer module?

I don't have a problem with recompiling my kernel, it is just that I was
hoping there would be a shorter way.
