** Summary changed:

- [feisty] USB printers not detected - user "lp" not in group "plugdev"
+ [feisty] USB printers not detected - user "cupsys" not in group "plugdev"

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: cupsys
  
  As discussed here:
  
  http://www.cups.org/newsgroups.php?gcups.bugs+v:5147
  
  my USB printer is not detected, as user "lp" (the user cups runs under)
  is not in group "plugdev".
  
  A simple "sudo adduser lp plugdev" and restart of cups fixes the issue.
+ 
+ EDIT: Seems that the "lp" user should not be used in cupsd.conf, that is
+ another bug in another package. But even with the "cupsys" user, the bug
+ persists. Thus, doing "sudo adduser cupsys plugdev" should work.
