The usblp in 2.6.18 polled for status regardless if we actually needed it. At some point I dropped it, to save the batteries if nothing else. As it turned out, printers exist (e.g. Canon BJC-3000) that need prodding this way or else they stop. This patch restores the old behaviour. If you want to save battery, don't leave jobs in the print queue. I tested this on my printers by printing and examining usbmon traces to make sure status is being requested and printers continue to print. Tuomas Jäntti verified the fix on BJC-3000.
