Comment 89 for bug 872711

This just stopped working for me. I seem to be back where I started (claims my printer is unplugged or turned off). I thought the problem might be that I had upgraded to kernel 3.0.0.14 so I tried booting up with 3.0.0.13, but it still doesn't work. This is an Epson Stylus Photo R300. Everything had been working fine once I upgraded to kernel 3.0.0.13 per instructions here. I did today take a CUPS update. Do I need to revert that? When I look at the CUPS web interface, my printer is there with the notation -CUPS+Gutenprint v5.2.7 Simplified Paused - "Unplugged or turned off" (it is plugged in and on). In /var/log/syslog, I see that it has been detected as a USB device, but with that phrase "udev-configure-printer: failed to claim interface 0".
