Upgrade to Ubuntu 13.04 kills CLX3305fn

I'm rather pessimistic about this.

Upgrading to Ubuntu 13.04 this weekend has meant that my CLX-3305fn mfp is no longer detected. I've tried re-installing the drivers and even tried using an older kernel, but nothing I've tried so far works.

I've tried both the Samsung installer and the SULDR packages (purging between attempts). Currently have the packages installed. Same behaviour for both.

When trying to add a printer through either CUPS or with the Configurator no local printers are found (I've double and triple-checked the connections).

Not mfp files exist in /dev (e.g. /dev/mfp4), which means that manually adding all the details just results in failure to find any devices when I go to test.

Any pointers greatly appreciated.

An update to the packages is coming that may address this issue.  I was hoping to get it out in parallel with the 13.04 release, but am running a few days behind.  I'm still trying to get everything out before the Debian Stable release this weekend.

Brilliant. Thanks a million for your efforts here!

Hopefully that will sort things.

I missed beating the Debian Wheezy release by a couple of hours, but the new packages are now available.
