Your posted information ("lsusb" reports printer, "ls -l
/dev/bus/usb/*/*" shows that UDEV has set correct permissions, but
/usr/lib/cups/backend/usb does not list the printer) matches exactly
with bug 872711 which I have found and reported today. It is a kernel
bug which affects many printers of different brands, but not all
printers.
Marking as duplicate of that bug ...

Kernel does not report some USB printers correctly, making them not being
