USB Printer

[Jeff Elkins]

Howdy,

Kubuntu 5.04 is not properly detecting a HP Laserjet connected via USB. This 
is a "real" printer, not a winprinter. the usblp module is loaded, but dmesg 
does not show the printer as detected, nor does printconf detect it.

This setup works fine under Debian sid. 

lsmod | grep usb
usb_storage            64064  0
usblp                  12032  0
usbcore               107384  5 usb_storage,ehci_hcd,usblp,uhci_hcd
scsi_mod              119936  4 sd_mod,usb_storage,sr_mod,sbp2
ide_core              118988  5 
usb_storage,ide_cd,ide_generic,via82cxxx,ide_disk

From dmesg:
drivers/usb/class/usblp.c: usblp0: USB Bidirectional printer dev 2 if 0 alt 1 
proto 2 vid 0x06CD pid 0x0301
usbcore: registered new driver usblp
drivers/usb/class/usblp.c: v0.13: USB Printer Device Class driver
usb 1-2: USB disconnect, address 2
drivers/usb/class/usblp.c: usblp0: removed

Thanks,
