Same has happened to me. 
8.04 worked fine. 8.10 worked initially, and then (2months ago?) it stopped 
working!
CUPS service is not listed in services and is reported as stopped when trying 
to print.
i read the other bug, but that just tells me that it's not being listed as an 
error. how
does one exactly print from a ubuntu machine then?

lsusb picks up my printers ID, ubuntu fails to set it up.

sudo /etc/init.d/cups status

sudo /etc/init.d/cups restart
 * Restarting Common Unix Printing System: cupsd
