Please do some more tests before updating to my PPA: The CUPS usb backend (of the CUPS which comes with Oneiric) already detects your printer, so I cannot imaging that you observe a behavior of CUPS not detecting your printer. You should have gotten an automatically generated print queue (or the old print queue is still available, your initial report shows that you have a correct print queue setup) and you should be able to print.
Make sure your print queue is enabled: cupsenable EPSON-Stylus-Photo-R300 and that you choose "EPSON-Stylus-Photo-R300" as the printer in the print dialogs of the applications. Can you also post the output of lpinfo -l -v Stop the command with Ctrl+C if it does not exit by itself. If this all does not work, follow the instructions under "CUPS error_log" and "Capturing print job data" on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingPrintingProblems -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/936155 Title: Epson Stylus Photo R300 not detected even with 3.0.0-16 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/936155/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
