Can you try the attached patch ? 
I've modified the libusb cups backend so it doesn't loop if the configuration 
setting doesn't work. As the printer is already claimed by an another driver, 
the kernel doesn't want to change device's configuration, but it should 
anyway allow printing.

This is done on purpose. Cups specify explicitly that backend should loop if 
the printer is busy.
