Well, that's umm, special.
I wonder if powering off the printer isn't causing the sysctl to be removed,
causing the next power-on to look like a new device ?
Eric, you poked around the sysctl paths in parport last year, any ideas?

Description of problem:
Get the following in dmesg. I had "printed" to an HP5MP printer from firefox,
but the printer was powered off.  I turned on the printer, and I believe got these.
