Cannot enable port

Hallo,

After connecting a USB Printer with my new Bubba 2 I get (not always, but most of the time) the error message (dmesg) "Cannot enable port 2. Maybe the USB Cable is bad?" and "unable to enumerate USB device on port 2"

I have tried another USB cable but the error remains the same.

If I connect the printer to an other computer it works fine.

Is it problem of the hardware?

Have you tried both USB ports in the Bubba?

It does sound like your Bubba might be dodgy. What model is the printer?

The printer is an old Oki B4250.

After rebooting the bubba printing works fine for one day. But now I get the same errors again.
