hp usb printer not usable after boot

[Stephen Clark]

Hello List,

With kernels 2.6.24.4-64.fc8 2.6.24.3-50.fc8 I can't access my hp officejet k-60 
unless I unplug the usb cable and plug it back it. I never use to have this 
problem. I can't print to it or access it with hp-tools.

**** with kernel 2.6.24.3-50.fc8 error when trying to access printer with hp-tools
