Description Tom 2011-01-15 16:25:49 UTC 
Description of problem:
Configured and working local USB printer will only print if it is turned on before booting. Logging out and back in is not enough. If I turn on the printer after booting and try to print, printing will only start after rebooting.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
cups-1.4.6-2.fc15

How reproducible:
Everytime

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Turn on local USB printer after booting.
2.Try to print.
3.Status stays at "Processing" and printing only starts after rebooting.
  
Actual results:
Local USB printer not detected after boot. Rawhide recently stopped detecting my printer after boot.

Expected results:
Local USB printer detected anytime.

Please attach an output from printing troubleshooter when you try to print before rebooting.

Can you also try some older cups version, like 1.4.6-1.fc15 or 1.4.5-10.fc15 ?

I tried cups 1.4.5-10.fc15 but still had the same problem. The troubleshooter had me log in as root, and the printing went fine. Once I did "lsusb -v" as root, printing worked again. Sorry for the trouble, but this bug is likely related to my other USB problem about having to log in as root and "lsusb -v" before all USB is found.

Marking this one as dependent on bug #664280.
