This works :-)
Open http://localhost:631/admin in your favorite konqueror window
Choose "Add Printer"
Type some useful name
Choose the entry stating your printer name and USB (the strange one, not USB 
#1). #1 defaults to the first usb printer, if I remember right the painful time 
when I had two usb printers installed. The strange entry chooses always the 
correct printer.
Choose your favorite driver
Print a test page
Dance for joy
