The problem is the instability in the return of the device ID. It often happens that there is no answer or the answer is scrambled. So then it does not look like status feedback being dependent on internal parameters like the fuser temperature but on some problem with getting the device ID. CUPS is based on identifying USB printers by the device ID (as /dev/usblp* files can change if there is more than one printer). Perhaps one should offer a configurable alternative, like USB vendor /product-ID-based URIs.
A question to the log snippets: Are they done with the original USB backend or with the new, alternative one? Please do testing with both. -- Brother Hl-1050 and HL-1430 are not detected properly over USB https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/35638 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
