Title:
system-config-printer-udev disables HP printers, again
Status in system-config-printer package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
Binary package hint: system-config-printer-udev
Some time ago I filed a bug about HP printers and hal-cups-utils. I've
been asked to use system-config-printer-udev instead of hal-cups-
utils: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hal-cups-
utils/+bug/439652. Now I'm using system-config-printer-udev on my
Debian Lenny box taken from Karmic (1.1.12+git20090826-0ubuntu8) and
recompiled in Lenny environment. HPLIP is from Sid, version 3.9.10-4.
The problem is the same - I've connected OfficeJet 3600, it has been
recognized and added by system-config-printer-udev but in "stopped"
state:
$ lshal | grep printer.

I've enabled it manually with cupsenable, but when I removed it from
USB port, system-config-printer-udev didn't remove it from CUPS
database, /etc/cups/printers.conf still contains a record for this
printer (and it is marked as "online"):
$ cat /etc/cups/printers.conf

As you can see, printer-state is "3", which means that it is online.
But it is physically disconnected:
$ lshal | grep printer.
info.product = 'Standard LPT printer port' (string)
pnp.description = 'Standard LPT printer port' (string)
$ lpstat -p
