[cups.general] Can no longer print with a USB URI

My printers.conf file has a line:

DeviceURI usb://EPSON/Stylus%20CX3700

This USED to work fine, but something got "upgraded" that
broke it, and even downgrading (udev and a couple of other
things) and rebuilding cups (1.2.10) doesn't fix it.

Now whenever I try to print ANYTHING, the web page starts
with some percentage received, but then shifts to:

"Printer not connected; will retry in 30 seconds..."

And never prints anything.

If I change the DeviceURI line to "file://dev/usb/lp0"
then it works fine again.

Any ideas on how to track this down? Thanks.

Tom
