Hi I did install the proposed package (cups) but the ubuntu 11.10 (64bit)/cups still can not connect to the usb printer (lexmark).
The usb printer works fine in when connect to ubuntu 11.04 (32bit) running inside a vmplayer ( host is the same ubuntu 11.10 (64bit) which can not connect to the usb printer (lexmark)). Therefore, I believe it is not a hardware problem ( printer, usb cable, ..)
