 What does ls -l /dev/usb/lp0 show?

Answer:

  ls: /dev/usb/lp0: No such file or directory

Hmm! Well done, Neil. Checked in the /dev/ directory and sure enough,
there is no /dev/usb but there is /dev/bus/usb/

Tried ls /dev/bus/usb/lp0 and /dev/bus/usb/004/lp0 all with the same
result. Not sure where to go from here, but it looks either as though
CUPS is assuming an invalid directory structure, or doesn't know how to
work with udev.

Any further thoughts?

Carl Adams.

Run tail -f /var/log/messages and connect the printer. the output
should tell you where the printer appears, then you can change the CUPS
config accordingly.
