Bug Description
Binary package hint: cups
CUPS 1.4.1-1 does not recognize Samsung usb printer, so the printer cannot be added.
# dmesg after unplugging and then reinserting the printer plug:
[ 645.290037] usb 3-1: USB disconnect, address 2
[ 645.290178] usblp0: removed
[ 660.320011] usb 4-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 3
[ 660.509389] usb 4-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
[ 660.517183] usblp0: USB Bidirectional printer dev 3 if 0 alt 0 proto 2 vid 0x04E8 pid 0x3008
*Ubuntu is seeing the printer attached to it.
- No options for adding a USB printer is prompt when trying to add a new printer using CUPS localhost:631 .I tried to restart the system several times with the printer ON but does not work either.
- This is a new Ubuntu install (Ubuntu 9.10 64 bits) with a gnome desktop. Cups accessed via localhost:631 does not list the usb printer as a new printer.
- It used to work flawless for me with Ubuntu 9.04 which had the previous CUPS version.
- I am using a Samsung ML-6060 USB printer
