Bug Description
Binary package hint: cups
The issue is a continuation of this one: https:/
After sending a job to USB printer new process is starting - 'usb' with owner 'lp'. The process eats almost 100% of CPU core (mostly 'system'). After a job is finished (printing itself is correct) the process still exists, eats CPU, doesn't respect sigterm.

In addition, the KDE printer management tools continues to show the print job that just completed printing as pending. No other documents can be printed until the print job has been canceled and the 100% CPU-sucking, 'lp'-owned usb process has been killed (-HUP.) After that, the cycle begins anew (documents prints fine, but continues to show as pending, 'usb' process continues to gobble up 100% CPU until killed.)
All this on Kubuntu Karmic Alpha-4 w/all recent updates. Printer: Samsung ML-1740 via usb.
