Systems A and B (both 32 bit Ubuntu 11.10) are loaded on external drives, and are run almost entirely on the HP6600f; a 64 bit computer. Tested SysA on 2 old (~10 years) and two newer (3 to six year) 32 bit computers. Cups prop version worked without a hitch on the two newer 32 bit computers. Cups ppa version works on the two older 32 bit computers; prop version doesn't work. Cups prop version works sometimes on the 64 bit computer. Seems to me there could be an intermittently appearing quirk in using the 64 bit computer with 32 bit version of Ubuntu 11.10 for printing via usb-parallel cable. For info _ the Epson Stylus Color 880 ink jet(usb-usb cable) is identified, installed and works without a problem on the same system configuration (32 bit Ubuntu; 64 bit machine). nvsoar -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/910272 Title: USB->Parallel adapter produces crappy device URI and CUPS "usb" backend cannot cope with it To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/910272/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
