Package: escputil
Version: 5.2.8-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

to obtain ink levels from my USB printer (EPSON Stylus Photo P50) escputil needs access to the device /dev/usb/lp0 which is created by the module usblp, but this module is blacklisted by CUPS

I tried using the raw device /dev/bus/usb/005/003 but it doesn't work either:

"Kann nicht auf /dev/bus/usb/005/003 schreiben: Das Argument ist ungültig"
("Cannot write to /dev/bus/usb/005/003 : The argument is invalid")

After manually loading the module usblp escputil works fine, also CUPS still seems to be working.
