Okay, so I've found a workaround for my printing problem.  

If enter the following:

lpadmin -p MY_PRINTER_NAME -o usb-no-reattach-default=true

and restart the printer, then printing seems to work properly.

So I guess the Lexmark E238 needs to be added to the printer quirks list in 
usb-libusb.c.   I'm guessing that many other similar lexmark printers will 
need to be added (E230, E232, E234, E240n, are all similar vintages), but I 
don't have those ones to test.

Here is my lsusb output:
ID 043d:00d7 Lexmark International, Inc. 

Would it be possible to add this to the quirk list and backport the full quirk 
list to the next update of Wheezy?  This is a rather frustrating regression.
