That's a real shame - there must be hundreds of frustrated users out 
there with apparently non-supported USB printers.  Personally I've seen 
a number of postings in various forums where users have hit this problem 
and have turned elsewhere (other OSes) for the solution.  I'm ashamed to 
say that this issue forced me to use Ubuntu for Samba Print/File 
services over the past few months - and I only stumbled across your FBSD 
solution by accident!

I'm happy to carry out any ulpt testing you may require - just drop me a 
line...
