Convincing.

Running

  lsub -v 

should give copious output, which we do not need to see.

As suggested by Peter Flynn, the command

  lsusb -v | grep -A 3 InterfaceClass

searches for the line with "InterfaceClass" in it and displays that line
and the following three lines.

The command I gave does the same as above but loks for lines that contain
"bInterfaceClass         7 Printer". Your basically empty outpu is not
expected because a printer is indeed attached to USB.

Very thorough. Now unattach and reattach the printer to USB and give

  systemctl status ipp-usb.service
