I am not using cups so this may not help.

My firefox stopped printing after the last upgrade and I had to
install xprt-xprintorg & xprt-common.  I also could not find any
printers.  After much reading I finally got it working by adding
this to my .bash_profile.

XPSERVERLIST="`/etc/init.d/xprint get_xpserverlist`"
export XPSERVERLIST
export LPDEST="lp+"

My printcap has entries for 4 printers, lp, lpp, lp+, ep.

If, after adding the above, you are printing 1/4 pages, don't forget
to select the correct paper size.  For some reason mine defaulted to
A4 paper.
