Public bug reported: Upgraded from Feisty to Gutsy Gibbon a couple of days ago. Just needed printer today.
Test print works. Epson Stylus Color 1160. Did not print after upgrade from Feisty to Gutsy. Disconnected and tried 'plug and play.' Nothing. Deleted and re-installed from System Administration Printing. Tried each of 5 offered drivers in turn with each of two PPD options, total of 20 tries for printer installed as device: usb://EPSON/Stylus%20 COLOR 20 1160 (selected from flyout menu rather than hand typed). And another 20 tries for printer installed as device: epson/dev/usb/lp0. Nada. Drivers tried: CUPS + Gutenprint 5.0.0-re2 (Recommended), CUPS + Gutenprint 5.0.1 Simplified, CUPS + Gutenprint 5.0.1, Foomatic /Gutenprint-ijs Simplified 5.0 and Foomatic/Gutenprint-ijs 5.0. Printer was working fine in Feisty. Test print looks good. So what now? I looked through Synaptic Package Manager and can't see anything obvious to change - I'm not a very sophisticated user so I'm not terminal command line savvy to run some kind of diagnostic.
