Hi Hans,

The cron idea works and printing is now automated with DWC OTG in debug
level 17. With this debug level 17 enabled, my keyboard gets unresponsive
for some period of time but still you can type. It just takes time to
respond but not totally unresponsive. Anyway, nothing to worry now as
automation is in place. As of this moment, still no error is encountered,
very intermittent. So, until its presence.

By the way, I have another observation. Since this printing investigation,
the USB's physical port assignments of my Epson printer and my USB keyboard
haven't changed. My keyboard is detected and assigned as a ugen1.5 device
on usbus1 while my printer is assigned as ugen1.4 on usbus1 as well.
Sometimes I turned off this printer and after several hours turned it back
on, the usbus1 assignment of the printer changed to ugen1.5 device. Though
not all the time, I noticed this twice already. Is this an expected
behavior?

Thanks,
Archimedes
