From: Grant To: Gentoo mailing list Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 X-Archives-Salt: 8c524b6a-4ecc-4bf1-9678-179530bb16cb X-Archives-Hash: 447dceb52f6a5cf738da750a6700bbd3 I need to connect a Zebra LP2844 USB label printer at about 35 feet from a Gentoo machine. I got this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003L14ZTC but it is proving to be unreliable. The printer stops responding many times per day and needs to be power cycled. Is there a reliable way to make this connection? - Grant
