** Description changed:

- From Oneiric on, the access to USB printers is exclusively done via
- libusb and not any more by the "usblp" kernel module. The module is
- blacklisted by the CUPS package.
+ From Oneiric on the default filter for turning PDF into the CUPS Raster
+ format (which is needed by HPLIP's hpcups driver) is not the Poppler-
+ based pdftoraster any more but the Ghostscript-based gstoraster.
  
- The problems occur independently of the CUPS backend (component of CUPS
- to communicate with printer hardware) used: The original "usb" backend
- of CUPS (/usr/lib/cups/backend/usb, CUPS package in Oneiric and Oneiric
- SRUs issued so far, based on deprecated, unmaintained libusb 0.1.x), a
- port of the "usb" CUPS backend to libusb 1.0.x (also
- /usr/lib/cups/backend/usb, but of current Precise CUPS package, version
- 1.5.0-14, or my PPA, https://launchpad.net/~till-kamppeter/+archive/ppa,
- version 1.5.0-8ubuntu7~ppa2), or HPLIP's "hp" backend (only HP printers,
- /usr/lib/cups/backend/hp, part of hplip-cups package).

/usr/lib/cups/backend/hp, part of hplip-cups package), and also printing into a 
file (run "cupsctl FileDevice=yes" then change device URI of print queue to 
"file:/tmp/printout"), then loading usblp ("sudo modprobe usblp"), and sending 
the file directly to the printer through usblp ("sudo -s", "cat /tmp/printout > 
/dev/usb/lp0").
  
  For me the data transfer of print jobs simply stops at a certain point,
- and always at the same point. It happens on the HP OfficeJet H470 and on
- the HP PhotoSmart C5280. According to the error_log of CUPS the filters
- and the driver do their jobs correctly, they do not show errors or
- crashes. The backend seems to freeze. The job does not complete
- according to the error_log, the backend process keeps running and the
- printer tells on its display that it is printing the job. Only after
- several minutes the display of the printer tells "Job canceled",
- probably due to a printer-internal timeout on not getting data any more.
- The CUPS backend keeps running infinitely then and the CUPS job does not
- terminate. This occurs the same way with all the three backends.
- 
- Sending the same job to the printers via network or Bluetooth does not
- show the problem. The jobs complete correctly in a reasonable time.

  There are also other printers where the problem does not occur with all
  three backends: HP Color LaserJet CM3530, HP LaserJet 1020, HP LaserJet
  3390, HP PhotoSmart C8180.
  
  The problem occurs on both Oneiric and Precise. The systems are both up-
  to-date. Especially all SRUs for CUPS and the kernel are installed, so
  it is not bug 872711 (or this bug did not get completely fixed).
  
- bug 879933 can be the same problem.
- 
- There is also a case of a printer not being detected ate all: bug 916652.
