Package: Cups Severity: normal Version: 1.3.8-1lenny2 hellas!
first debian bug report ever... sorry if i did something wrong! especially if cups is not the culprit. i have a samsung usb printer attached to an old etch box. it worked there for ~3 years (after i fiddled a lot with the driver provided by samsung). i cant recall many details. i did always compile my own kernel there and did not have any problems with the printer whatsoever. atm it runs 2.6.23.11. now i want to attach it to a similar (same chipset) pc running lenny (upgraded from etch, where i used this printer remotely via cups). this is the dmesg output i get when i turn the printer on (with 2.6.26-1): [ 1647.191312] usb 1-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 4 [ 1647.433706] usb 1-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice [ 1647.453530] usblp0: USB Bidirectional printer dev 4 if 0 alt 0 proto 2 vid 0x04E8 pid 0x3256 [ 1647.453968] usb 1-1: New USB device found, idVendor=04e8, idProduct=3256 [ 1647.453994] usb 1-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3 [ 1647.454014] usb 1-1: Product: Samsung ML-1520 Series [ 1647.454030] usb 1-1: Manufacturer: Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.
