I've got an HP laserjet 2300 which is plugged into the usb port on my RHEL5 server so it shows up as

   DeviceURI hp:/usb/hp_LaserJet_2300_series?serial=CNCFF60878

in /etc/cups/printers.conf. It refuses to print though. The cups status page always shows "open print channel failed; will retry in 30 seconds..." unless I disconnect the printer in which case it shows that it's not connected.
Aha! Something doesn't like that URI, I changed the selection in system-config-printer to use "usb #1" and the DeviceURI changed to usb://HP/LaserJet%202300%20series and it's all happy now.
