I poked around a bit and found that adding the printer to /usr/share/hwdata/usb.ids causes kudzu to detect the printer with the new kernel. I removed the printer configuration and booted without the printer entry in usb.ids and confirmed that the new kernel does not detect the printer. I added back the printer to usb.ids and the printer is detected when booted on the new kernel.

It "appears" something changed about the kernel.
I made a typo error during testing. + 324c ML-1470 Printer should be + 324c ML-1740 Printer Sorry about that.
