What shows up in /var/log/messages when you 1) power-cycle the
printer 2) disconnect and reconnect the printer?

Also, I found mine didn't work when I plugged my cardreader into
the motherboard port right next to my printer. Worked when I moved
the reader to the other set of usb ports, even though they are
supposedly on the same port and interface:

ulpt0 at uhub1 port 1 configuration 1 interface
ulpt0: Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. Samsung ML-1430,
       rev 1.10/1.00, addr 2, iclass 7/1
ulpt0: using bi-directional mode
umass0 at uhub0 port 1 configuration 1 interface
umass0: PQI Travel Flash, rev 1.10/2.05, addr 2
umass0: using SCSI over Bulk-Only
