For the records: with latest portstree - some patches have been commited during the last days - and a # portupgrade -arf which took some time, print/cups and print/hplip now will recognize my USB-printer correctly. ulpt doesn't have to be removed from the kernel, I tested that.=20 Of course permissions for the ugen device have to be set so that cups can access it. Thanks to everyone who repaired the ports!
