I have recently attached a USB to my centos 5.1 NAS server.

The printer works for about 5 minutes after the box has started but 
after that it stops working.  CUPS says the device is busy.  If I print 
stuff, reboot the server and go into cups it mentions an error about HAL 
failing, i click start printer anyway and all the documents I have 
printed will be printed.

Someone mentioned it might be USB power saving, if this is the case how 
do i turn it off?
