"Following some e-mail exchange with Mike Sweet I have deprecated the usblp
kernel module in Ubuntu and Debian, at least if CUPS is used as the

In the Debian/Ubuntu package of CUPS I have switched over from getting the
usblp kernel module auto-loaded and using the usblp-based "usb" CUPS
backend to blacklisting the usblp kernel module and using the libusb-based
"usb" CUPS backend."
