[STR Closed w/o Resolution]

This is ultimately a problem with the USB printer module in the kernel and
not an issue with the CUPS backend, since we just look for the devices the
kernel reports and use the one that corresponds to your printer.

CUPS 1.4 has a new libusb-based backend which may work better with this
printer - it does *not* use the kernel printer module and thus can avoid
the problems associated with it...
