In case anybody cares, I have the same issue with my good old HP DeskJet 880C, which worked perfectly until upgrading to 9.04, working fine for more than ten years...

I had to change the way it is accessed for it to start working at all. Thanks to my backup, I can tell you the the old URI was:
DeviceURI usb://HP/DESKJET%20880C?serial=ES91P131MRFA
...and the new is:
DeviceURI hp:/usb/DeskJet_880C?serial=ES91P131MRFA

AFAIK, the old URI scheme does not work anymore...
The printer works for some time, then something goes pear shaped and I have PoffPon the printers's, I suppose to reset its USB stack.
