In the traces I see, that the newline between the two prompt lines is
<CR><LF> in reality. So it looks like

lp -d RICOH-Aficio-MP-C3001 -o sides=two-sided-long-edge
^B~^M

Maybe both lines could be interpreted as a prompt, which might confuse
Tramp. If the first line is already regarded as prompt, it would mean
that the second line (the real prompt) is kept unhandled, or whatever.

You have the following options:

1- Change the prompt on the remote machine to be better
recognizable. The Tramp manual gives you some hints, how to do it.

2. Check your settings of tramp-shell-prompt-pattern and
shell-prompt-pattern that they do match only the last line of your
prompt.

That we shall investigate afterwards.

Thanks, this allows much better to see non-asci chars.
