Here is dmesg}tail from an unplug-plug of the USB cable

You'll note that the USB device is a "controller" not the actual printer. The "controller" is a USB-parallel adapter to the printer, an HP LaserJet 1300.

Some data.

Printing is sporadic. Mostly the job just hangs, but sometimes it actually prints.

"Self test" (from Administration=>Print Settings) works, but "test Page" does not.

"cat foo | lpr" hangs.

All of this is from Fedora 19.  Under Fedora 17 printing often worked, but always worked if I plug-unplug the USB cable.

I'm puzzled by the last "usblp0: removed". It seems that this is consistent with the behavior, but I have no idea what it would happen.

Suggestions as how to proceed would be appreciated.
