Testing performed on two Ubuntu 11.10 installations without a printer configuration installed. Opened the printers window manually, after turning on the printer, and inserting the usb plug of the Belkin cable. The query "lsusb" reported the presence of the cable. Printer connection choices were "URI" or several types of Network connections; in one instance there was also an "LPT#1" choice. The "/Model" choice that worked (and still does), offered with the "ppa" CUPS version, did not exist. Entered the URI that resulted using the ppa CUPS version; result - the printer state on attempting to print a test page was "Processing - Waiting for printer to become available.";or something close to that. nvsoar 17Jan2012 ~0100GMT -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/910272 Title: USB->Parallel adapter produces crappy device URI and CUPS "usb" backend cannot cope with it To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/910272/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
