Public bug reported: I'm using an updated Ubuntu 11.10 beta 1 (amd64).
I have an Epson SX420W printer/scanner. I tried both the free and the proprietary drivers that Jockey displayed, and I tried to connect the printer with both USB and network. In every case, the drivers are installed correctly and the printer looks ready, but each time I start a print job, I have the following notification : "Printer EPSON - Epson SW420W series may not be connected". The strange thing is that the scanner works fine with SimpleScan. In Ubuntu 11.04, with cups 1.4.6, I use the same proprietary driver that is proposed in Oneiric, and everything works fine.
