> Make sure your print queue is enabled: > cupsenable EPSON-Stylus-Photo-R300 That was it. Before giving that command, Properties in the Printers GUI (for EPSON-Stylus-Photo-R300) hand shown a "Printer State:" of "off or unplugged", just like when I had first upgraded to oneiric and before taking the "proposed" kernel. Once I gave the cupsenable command (which produced no output), and tried Properties again, it had changed to "Idle". Once I saw "Idle", I knew it would work, which it did. Given all this, I believe that in the state it was in before the cupsenable, Properties should have shown for "Printer State:", instead of "off or unplugged", something more like "print queue disabled" with an option to enable it (or lacking that, a hint about the "cupsenable" command). Obviously, "off or unplugged" was incorrect (I wonder if there's a bug for that). Anyway, thank you. I am really grateful to have my printer working once again.
