I could neither print text files with a2ps, documents with OpenOffice nor
web pages using Firefox! So this was a real show stopper.
My guess is that most apps convert their sources to postscript before
sending it to CUPS which would justify a dependency to whatever CUPS
needs to be able to print postscript.
