Hi, Martin,

I am also having some problems with recent cups from sid, works are queued,
but not printed.

Using Debian default kernel and honouring cups blacklist, so no usblp is
loaded.

$ lsmod  | grep usb
usbcore               126004  3 uhci_hcd,ehci_hcd

I have noticed that when trying to install the same printer with a new name
under foomatic-gui, the usb queue is not shown as an alternative. This may
be related to the problem.

Forcing load of usblp causes the usual ton of

usb 1-2: usbfs: interface 0 claimed by usblp while 'usb' sets config #1

errors, and do not make things work.

Everything works under testing (1.3.11-1) and stable (1.3.8-1+lenny6).

Cheers,
