Bug#383091: cupsys: usb printing bug still present

[Ratiu Petru <petre@lsd.ro>]

Package: cupsys
Version: 1.2.7-2
Followup-For: Bug #383091


I confirm too the presence of this bug on 2 systems (an etch and a sid,
updated this morning). The Cups server sees it when it's not configured,
however when I try printing, it says "Printer not connected, will retry
in 30 seconds".

I have succeeded to print using "file:/dev/usb/lp0" instead of
"usb:/dev/usb/lp0".

If it's relevant, the printer model is Brother MFC-7420.

It has worked before on one machine, I'm pretty sure it used sarge
before the upgrade (though it might have been woody, it was an old
install).

If required, I can provide more information, as it's my current office
printer.

Thank you.
