Hi Michael, and thanks for your very detailed bugreport, it's greatly 
appreciated.

Without much insight into your specific problem, would the (quite invasive) 
attached patch solve your problem ? It's the "backport" of latest upstream 
CUPS libusb backend over 1.5.3-2.3 .

Well... As far as I understand it (and I'm a young cups bird), the module 
should either be loaded by default or on-demand. It has been blacklisted for a 
while so the postinst ensures that a non-rebooted system upgraded through 
these versions would get a loaded module. I think (but might be wrong), that 
the module would otherwise be loaded.

Looking forward for the results of the attached patch!

Cheers, 

OdyX
