Hi Alfredo
Is it a parallel or a serial printer? or does it have both
interfaces? If so, which one are you using?
Second question - does 'do not print all the time' mean that it does
print sometimes and not others? or have you never gotten it to print?
We need more info before we can help.
Brian

There are two ways of using a serial USB port. One uses udev to
create /dev/ttyUSB0 (or /dev/ttyUSB1) and the other uses libusb
and usb: (that colon is needed).
Problem is, the two systems conflict.
When you connect your device look in /dev and see if ttyUSB0 has
been created. Then "locate libusb" or use synaptic to see if
libusb is installed. If both things are true, you will need to
suppress one of them.

I'm guessing it's really old fashioned serial - not USB. The
Panasonic KXP printers I remember had one or both, but they predate
USB. A quick google of that model number got me nowhere. Manhattan
Parallel was a name brand of A/B switches used for that and other
things. All pure speculation of course waiting for the OP to
comment....

Assuming that this is a Sony Vaio desktop, move the usb to one of the
back ports on the Vaio & reboot - don't just log off/on, reboot. The
front USB ports on Sony Vaio's are known to have weak/noisy USB signals
on them. If that doesn't work, please provide the output of these
commands from the terminal:
lsusb
(with the device plugged in)
lsusb
(with the device unplugged)
dmesg|grep usb
