This is due to the changes of the new CUPS 1.4.0 in Karmic. The problem is caused by a new USB CUPS backend. For this backend the "usblp" kernel module must be unloaded.

Edit /etc//etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf adding a line

blacklist usblp

and then run the command

sudo rmmod usblp

Now CUPS should see your USB printers again.
