The permissions and ownerships of /dev/usb/lp0 are correct. Permissions
and ownerships of symlinks have no meaning, always the permissions and
ownerships of the physical file count.

It seems that there is a problem with printing through the usblp kernel
module. This would be a kernel problem.

Please check whether the PPA solves the problem. Please update all the
11 files you get offered. My PPA carries only printing-related packages
and for Oneiric I have only uploaded cups and cups-filters AFAIR. The
packages are all the binary packages of the source packages cups and
cups-filters.

After installing the PPA unplug the adapter cable from the computer's
USB and plug it back in again while the printer is connected to the
parallel end and turned on. Do you get a print queue auto-created now or
at least system-config-printer popping up and asking you for manual
make/model selection? Does the command

sudo /usr/lib/cups/backend/usb

detect a USB printer, your adapter cable, an unknown USB printer, ...?
This is your BJ-200. If no working print queue gets auto-generated, open
system-config-printer, click "Add", choose the local USB printer entry
(BJ-200, your adapter cable, or Unknown) and manually choose
manufacturer and model if needed.
