Hmm, that's odd

The only 3 rules we have in Intrepid for assigning the lp group are:

40-permissions.rules:SUBSYSTEM=="printer", GROUP="lp"
40-permissions.rules:SUBSYSTEM=="ppdev", GROUP="lp"
40-permissions.rules:SUBSYSTEM=="usb", KERNEL=="lp[0-9]*", GROUP="lp"

These three rules are all present in Jaunty.

Could you plug the printer into intrepid and do the ll on /dev/bus/usb there to prove it's in group "lp" and run udevadm info -qall -n /dev/bus/XXX/YYY on that to show which rule is picking it up
