Comment 105 for bug 420015

My printer still isn't working. I reported this in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/443981 but was directed here.

The following is a snippet from dmesg where I turn the printer off, and then on...

It doesn't seem to be recognized as a printer at all. However, it did work under jaunty and in early alphas of karmic.

Also, I note that the udev rule changes mentioned in #74 are not included in udev - 174~-5. To verify, I tried making the changes to usb and printer by hand, and then did a "apt-get install --reinstall udev" and my changes were wiped out. To get the device permissions below, I had to change the group ownership by hand.
