Please take a look at LP #872483.

Trying the suggestion in comment #6 might indicate a hardware problem
or not. The techniques in comment #56 are usually advised when it is
suspected the printer has a problem with USB and have helped to resolve
such issues in the past. See how you go and let us know.
You don't have a network port, we suppose, but you could try the
parallel port to avoid the power recycling.
