NAME
ieee1284_claim - claim access to the port
SYNOPSIS
#include <ieee1284.h> int ieee1284_claim(struct parport *port);
DESCRIPTION
With the exception of ieee1284_get_deviceid(3), ieee1284_claim must be called on an open port before any other libieee1284 function for accessing a device on it.
RETURN VALUE
E1284_OK Success. Note that, unless the F1284_EXCL flag was specified to start with, the port should be released within a "reasonable" amount of time. E1284_NOMEM There is not enough memory. E1284_INVALIDPORT The port parameter is invalid (for instance, it might not have been opened yet). E1284_SYS There was a problem at the operating system level.
