I have freshly installed Ubuntu Jammy with CUPS and printer-driver-gutenprint and am having problems with my USB printer. My printer is not recognised in CUPS. When I uninstall the printer-driver-gutenprint package, CUPS finds the USB printer, but the manufacturer is missing and I cannot use it. I have seen on the internet that printer-driver-gutenprint does not work well with libusb-1.0-0:2:1.0.25. This version of libusb is installed by default with Ubuntu Jammy and the 1.0.24 is not present in the package sources. Does anyone have any ideas? I found the sources of libusb for version 1.0.24 and 1.0.26, but I don't know how to compile them or create a package from them.
Or does anyone know another workaround?
The error message in the LOG looks like this:
gutenprint53+us[19871]: segfault at 38 ip 0000xxxxxxxxxxx sp 0000xxxxxxxxxxx error 4 in libc.so.6[xxxxxx5000+195000]
