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

George, can you do

sudo usb_printerid /dev/usb/lp0

and post the output here?

Please note also that your problem is not the problem originally
reported here. Your problem is that CUJPS cannot cope with a USB printer
which does not supply its device ID. Every native USB printer supplies
its ID< but your adapter cable is a bad implementation, it does not pass
on the device ID which the printer supplies to its parallel port. Please
report a separate bug on this, perhaps even better directly upstream at
http://www.cups.org/ (problem will occur the same way if you are using
another Linux distribution than Ubuntu or Mac OS X).
