Public bug reported:
Cups is unable to define a USB printer. When you click on System
Settings->Printer Configuration then click on New Printer followed by
New Network Printer you see a nice connection list. It shows your LPT1,
your serial ports, then gives you a lot of network type printing
options.
There is no search done for USB.
Clicking on "other" simply throws up a URL entry line which requires an
operating system expert to manually enter.
rol...@logikaldesktop:~$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu karmic (development branch)
Release: 9.10
