26 Have you tried this configuration?
27 http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/HPLIP
28 For USB printers net-print/cups has to be built with the usb USE flag.
29 This way it makes use of the dev-libs/libusb user space tool which
30 replaces kernel usb printer support (CONFIG_USB_PRINTER). In case of
31 problems you can disable the usb USE flag for net-print/cups and
32 activate the kernel functionality again.
