I get this same bug too. I have a HP Deskjet 950C -- but it's not connected via
USB. It happens intermittently -- not all the time, and if I wait a while after
the error message, I'm able to use GNOME. dmesg says this:

usb 1-2.4: epson timed out on ep0in
eth0: no IPv6 routers present
usb 1-2.4: epson timed out on ep0in
lp0: ECP mode
usb 1-2.4: hald timed out on ep0in

When I was using Gentoo (I just recently switched to Ubuntu), I didn't have this
problem, but cupsd would take f'n ages (like 30 seconds or something). On Gentoo
I didn't get the hald errors, but I got the exact same errors about "canon" and
"epson". I believe I narrowed the problem down to it being those timeouts that
made cupsd take so long to start, but got no further. They seem a bit strange,
especially as I don't have any Canon or Epson hardware.

I can provide additional info if required -- it would be really nice to get this
one fixed!
