Bug#373899: me too
Hi!
My USB printer does not print under linux for several weeks now. I tried
the latest package cupsys 1.2.4 today but still got nothing. As a side
effect, for some unknown configuration quirk I have two printers installed
now:
lpstat -a -v

hp:/usb/hp_color_LaserJet_2550_series?serial=00CNFDD05275
device for HPColorLaserJet2550L: usb:/dev/usb/lp0
device for PDF: cups-pdf:/
Funny thing is I don't have a /dev/usb directory anymore, only
/dev/bus/usb... ?!? But other USB devices like keyboard and mouse are
working fine.
In the admin console I see the following status lines:
hp_usb_hp_color_LaserJet_2550_series (Standarddrucker) "open print channel
failed; will retry in 30 seconds..."
HPColorLaserJet2550L "Printer not connected; will retry in 30 seconds..."
The only workaround I found was saving the files to a FAT32 partition on
an external HDD, rebooting to windows and printing there, which is very
time-consuming.
