Progress on usb/79524 (printing to Minolta 1300W via /dev/ulpt0)

[Eugene Rogoza]

Hello everybody,

The old issue with 'ulpt' and "device busy" (usb/79524) is slowly moving
towards resolution.

A brief history:

I tried the patch of Mr. M. Warner Losh and voila! No "device busy"
anymore, but when sending a print job, the kernel reports: "ulpt0:
offline", and stays offline, although the printer is turned on.

Is it a somewhat known issue, or should I supply additional debug
information?

Sincerely,
Eugene.
