After last Current upgrade my printer stopped working. In syslog I have:

Please refer to the installation instructions at:

Done.
I've just upgraded left 2 updates which I hadn't had, I mean: udev (basing on the http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...ernels-793583/) and kernel. But it still doesn't work. If my printer HP 840C is connected via USB, do I need parallel port support in CUPS, which is now disabled?
I believe the problem lies with cups 1.4.2. I also had problems with cups detecting my USB printer. From what I understand anyway is that there is a problem with usblp and that supposedly if you blacklist usblp it SHOULD see your printer. Didn't work for me though. I went back to cups 1.3 and everything worked again.
I would go back to 1.3. There are numerous threads about printers that have stopped working with 1.4 with and without usblp. I don't know what the problem is other than cups 1.4
I also tried connecting via usb://, but source of the problem was the same. Does kernel need to be compiled with some special options to work with CUPS 1.4? I don't have usblp in kernel.
Some other error from syslog:
Code:
Mar 7 11:16:07 zielony hp[1090]: io/hpmud/musb.c 1991: invalid usb_open: Permission denied
Mar 7 11:16:07 zielony last message repeated 3 times
this is the problem of the hplip 3.9.12. you can check the other thread about cups and print.
I use the hp 3.10.2 and compile with new feature. It work for my hp-3325 printer now.
I also had a problem printing after the upgrade. I manually merged my old cupsd.conf with cupsd.conf.net, but still no go.
I deleted the printer via cups and tried to re-add it, and it was not showing (usb / canon)
From another forum/thread, I performed;
Quote:
~$ lsmod |grep usblp
usblp 9539 0
~$ rmmod usblp
/etc/rc.d/rc.cups stop
cups: stopped scheduler. [ OK ]
/etc/rc.d/rc.cups start
cups: started scheduler. [ OK ]
I then tried to add the printer via the cups web interface, and it appeared. I then added my 'allowed' user via the web interface, printed a test page - it worked.
(Oh, my test page just came out almost 100% black. Still tweaking...)
