I had very similar messages (from memory), tried all sorts of different kernel
versions, options, usb patches.... I even exchanged the usb cable. After a
week I was ready to throw the **** printer out the window, when by chance I
tried a shorter usb cable and it's worked perfectly ever since. I know it
sounds unlikely (all the cables were within the 10ft allowed for usb1), but
it worked for me. Might be worth a try.
