*Ubuntu suddenly fails to detect my printer, Samsung ML-1660

Hello Everybody

Yesterday, I wrote amongst others, this:

Today, the problem seems to be solved for "80%". The system, Kubuntu 12.04, 
again recognises the printer. I do manage to print test pages. I also do 
manage to print from other applications - however, I often need to switch on 
and off the printer in order to get a page printed.

Respectfull yours,
