Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: hplip

Using Ubuntu 8.10, hplip 2.8.7-0ubuntu6, HP Laserjet p3005d connected
via USB.

The printer was recognised and installing apparently OK. It would
successfully print one print job, but would then appear to have
disconnected. Physically unplugging and replugging the USB cable would
cause it to "reappear" and function normally ... but again, only for one
print job.

tail \var\log\syslog as follows:

Following solution at
https://answers.launchpad.net/hplip/+question/19901, removal of hplip
packages appear to have cured the problem. CUPS now shows the device URI
as usb://HP/LaserJet%20P3005, and consecutive jobs appear to print
normally. Although this works, I have no idea WHY it works, and (perhaps
unfairly) assume some problem in hplip.
