Alistair, can you now test ~ppa14 without blacklisting the kernel module and turning off all special options. To do so, before starting the test run the commands

cancel -a
sudo chmod +x /lib/udev/udev-configure-printer
lpadmin -p <queue> -R usb-no-reattach
lpadmin -p <queue> -R usb-unidir
mv /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-cups-usblp.conf ~
sudo rmmod usblp
sudo modprobe usblp

then turn off and turn on your printer. Does your printer now work without any problems?

If it does not work correctly under these conditions, run the above commands but with

sudo chmod -x /lib/udev/udev-configure-printer

instead of +x and then turn off and turn on your printer again. Does it work now?
