I assume you are using Mandrake 7.0 or 7.1. Have you started the LPD
daemon:
chkconfig --add lpd
/etc/rc.d/init.d/lpd start
Are the kernel modules for USB printing loaded (they probably are
because the autodetection works, but check with "lsmod"):
modprobe usbcore
modprobe usb-uhci
modprobe printer
