The Precise Pangolin has reached end of life, so this bug will not be fixed for that release

Printer is a HP 540 on the parallel port. In CUPS, when selecting the auto detected printer I only have the LPT printer available. Printing to this device using any PPD (HPIJS, PL3, etc) results in slow printing output or, sometimes, even a complete error state on the printer. Booting the same machine up on a LiveCD of Jaunty (Alpha 4) CUPS shows 2 available printers: the first on the LPT port, the second on parport0. Selecting the parport printer (using the hp URI in CUPS) while in the LiveCD allows all printing to function normally. I have verified that all the parport, lp, and ppdev modules are installed.
