That's weird. Do you have any special messages at
/System/Variable/log/cups/error_log?

By the way, since yesterday I'm creating a more robust recipe for CUPS
and ESP-GhostScript. I hope to have that finished today. If everything

(just in case your printer doesn't work for you with the current CUPS
package).
