[Bug 35638] Re: Printer is not detected properly over USB

[Stanley Sokolow]

Whoa!  I respectfully object that declaring this bug as invalid just to
resolve it is not a responsible way to treat Ubuntu bugs.   I am one of
the other people who "really saw this problem" and reported it.   I
haven't been participating in this bug thread for quite a while because
I got around the bug by using the parallel port instead of the buggy USB
interface, but I've been watching and hoping for a bug fix.   My printer
is a Brother HL-1440.   I have several.   They all do the same thing.
I recently bought a newer Brother model HL-5250.   I've been too busy to
install Hardy alphas since alpha-3, but when beta is released, I plan to
install the beta and re-test all of the bugs I reported which are still
unresolved, including this one.   I recall seeing other bug reports
which are almost duplicates of this bug, so I'm sure that other people
had the problem and either gave up on Ubuntu or used a different printer
or port.

I see that a new Brother driver is targeted for inclusion in the beta
release.   That should be a good time to re-visit this bug.   As the
famous movie line from Arnold goes, "I'll be bock."  Please keep this
bug open.
