Wow Brian,
I'm very happy that I read this email.
I seem to have the same problem with the latest cooker (this evening of
March 5th)
I have an HP deskjet 970CXi on the USB.
A few days ago it suddenly did not work after urpmi --auto-select,
so I reinstalled all the printer software.
No worko!
I just set the cups log level to debug and restarted the cups daemon.
It looks like yours!
The relevant section from /var/log/cups/error_log:
...
(PID 2817) for job 5.
D [05/Mar/2003:21:51:55 +0100] StartJob: backend = "/usr/lib/cups/backend/usb"
D [05/Mar/2003:21:51:55 +0100] StartJob: filterfds[0] = -1, 10
D [05/Mar/2003:21:51:55 +0100] start_process("/usr/lib/cups/backend/usb",
0xbffefd20, 0xbffef1c0, 9, 10, 8)
E [05/Mar/2003:21:51:56 +0100] PID 2817 stopped with status 22!
I [05/Mar/2003:21:51:56 +0100] Started backend /usr/lib/cups/backend/usb (PID
2818) for job 5.
D [05/Mar/2003:21:51:56 +0100] ProcessIPPRequest: 6 status_code=0
D [05/Mar/2003:21:51:56 +0100] [Job 5] /usr/lib/cups/filter/cupsomatic: No
such file or directory

D [05/Mar/2003:21:51:56 +0100] CloseClient() 3
and then the job is canceled.
Now I will go and get the cuspmatic from Mandrake 9.0 which I luckily still
have around somewhere!
ps. Do you have this problem too: each KDE program from which I print
crashes after the printer dialog window is shown.
I think this should never happen, whatever CUPS does!
