  usblp Kernel module needs to be removed and /dev/bus/usb/*/* made

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: cups

  As of updates this morning, my local USB connected Epson Stylus C66 is
  no longer found by Ubuntu Karmic Alpha.  It worked before, and the
  driver was still installed, but even when plugged in:

  $ lsusb
  ...
  Bus 008 Device 003: ID 04b8:0005 Seiko Epson Corp. Stylus D88+
  ...

  I was told that the printer is offline or disconnected.  I deleted the
  printer from System>Adminstration>Printing, then searched for it, and
  it was not found.  Enclosed is the troubleshooting info.

  To reproduce, just plug in the local printer, turn it on, then try to
  add a new printer in System>Adminstration>Printing (actually, if I
  remember correctly, it should be recognized automatically once it is
  plugged in and turned on).
