Package: cups
Version: 1.5.3-2.12
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
I did a complete wipe and install with Wheezy and cups doesn't recognize
nor auto-install my Brother HL-2040. I did a complete wipe and install
with Squeeze and it worked great (although it configured as a HL-2060).
I hope that wasn't confusing, the printer auto configures under Squeeze
but not Wheezy. Wheezy/cups never sees the printer.
Under Wheezy, when I go to http://localhost:631/admin and click on
"Find New Printer" it responds with "No printers found".
The command "lsusb" reports:
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 003 Device 002: ID 04f9:0028 Brother Industries, Ltd Printer
Bus 005 Device 002: ID 046d:c52f Logitech, Inc. Wireless Mouse M305
This is exactly the same for both Squeeze and Wheezy installations.
Under Wheezy, the command "lsmod | grep lp" reports:
lp 12797 0
usblp 17115 0
drm_kms_helper 22699 1 radeon
drm 134220 4 drm_kms_helper,ttm,radeon
parport 31254 3 parport_pc,lp,ppdev
i2c_core 19116 5 i2c_algo_bit,i2c_i801,drm,drm_kms_helper,radeon
usbcore 104503 5 ehci_hcd,uhci_hcd,usbhid,usblp
For comparison, under Squeeze "lsmod | grep lp" reports:
lp 5570 0
usblp 7899 0
drm_kms_helper 18569 1 radeon
drm 112621 4 radeon,ttm,drm_kms_helper
parport 22554 3 ppdev,lp,parport_pc
i2c_core 12803 5 radeon,drm_kms_helper,i2c_i801,drm,i2c_algo_bit
usbcore 99426 5 usblp,usbhid,uhci_hcd,ehci_hcd
When the printer was configured under Squeeze,
http://localhost:631/admin -> Manage Printers -> HL-2040 reports:
Description: Brother HL-2040 series
Location: carpe
Driver: Brother HL-2060 Foomatic/hpijs-pcl5e (recommended) (grayscale, 2-sided
printing)
Connection: usb://Brother/HL-2040%20series
Defaults: job-sheets=none, none media=na_letter_8.5x11in sides=one-sided
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks.

It might be quite far as I'm in .ch; but if you happen to attend DebConf13 in
August, I might have the occasion to hand you one too! :)
Cheers,
