I confused both options, without the above option printer works flawlessly. In addition I instructed modprobe to load ehci when it loads uhci, and then uhci. Truth is truth, I have again seen same timeout messages, just after I reboot the printer. It is possible that some of the hp scripts, eg the one that loads firmware, queries the printer while firmware loads or so, anyway even after such message printer works (I printed a page using it). Now I will enable again the CONFIG_USB_EHCI_TT_NEWSCHED, and see how fast it will fail.
