Package: cups
Version: 1.2.7
Severity: important

Hi,
I am not able to install my usb printer kyocera fs-820 under cups. There 
is no usb-device. It seems that Martin had the same problem and solve it 
by patching the kernel. See: http://www.zut.de/kyocerafs820.html
I think this is not necessary because the kernel do not have a problem 
to recognice the device: 
david:/home/torsten# lsusb
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 003 Device 002: ID 045e:0039 Microsoft Corp. IntelliMouse Optical
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0482:0010 Kyocera Corp.
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
I think there is a bug in cups that makes that there is no usb device 
for the printer.
Please answer me if the mistake is o my side.
Thank you and soory for my bad english

Yes, since 2.6.19 seems fix this problem.
Unfortunately Debian Etch won't update its kernel.

Better solution is to apply a patch you have shown, or to use
backported kernel from www.backports.org.

Another idea is to add "FileDevice yes" into your /etc/cups/cupsd.conf
and use file:/dev/usb/lp0 (with modifying /etc/cups/printers.conf)
for your printer.

Although CUPS 1.2 automatically finds USB device by using some
informations instead of specifying a device file such as
/dev/usb/lp0, it fails to detect a printer in some cases (like you).

Thanks,
