Which version of Ubuntu are you using?
This issue is similar to bug #54362, keeping seperate for now.
Quoting Till:
The problem is that often the model information which a printer reports back on
an auto-detection request (device ID) is not in printer database at it is not
known to us. And as it often does not match the exact writing of the
human-readable printer name in the printer list, the matching sometimes fails.
Can you do
sudo rmmod usblp
sudo modprobe usblp
sudo lpinfo -l -v
and post the output here?
