| As a general rule for upgrading to cups 1.4 when something regarding local usb printers doesn't work:1. disable kernel usblp: CONFIG_USB_PRINTER=n 2. delete /etc/cups 3. (re-)install cups 1.4 with USE="usb" 4. configure printer(s) from scratch via the cups webinterface 5. if your printer is a multifunction device, be sure you got the udev rules setting the device permissions in shape so cups can access the deviceIf for whatever reason (broken/old printer drivers) that doesn't work out there's still the way to install CUPS 1.4 with USE="-usb" to get the old CUPS 1.3 behaviour back.
