I got the packages ijsgutenprint and libgutenprint2 from "testing". Because
my call to gs and then cp ...ps /dev/lp0 works, I assume that these packages
are OK.

Thanks for your hint how to call foomatic-ppdfile. I will first deinstall
Lprng and install cups - and then do that. On "testing", there is a package
cupsys-driver-gutenprint, and I will examine that too. I will then report
how it works.
