[cups.general] HP PSC-750 "Media tray empty!" Error

[Jeff Cranmer]

Don't you just love it when some anonymous pillock sends an abusive
message as a response to someone taking their own time to help people
with problems :-/

I upgraded to cups 1.1.23rc1 today, and the USB bugfix incorporated into
this release has solved the media tray empty error.  

Thanks for the assistance, Till - the problem is now solved :-)
