You run an ancient version of cups, and a curious mix of cups dependencies
(cups-filters from unstable, not all cups dependencies installed, etc).

What output do you get in said mail?

These two bugs are fixed in Wheezy; please test cups 1.5.3-5 from Wheezy,
including its dependencies; I wouldn't be surprised if some things would be
fixed for you, including this. In any case, I will not fix bugs for versions
not in the Debian suites, so please really make sure to reproduce your bug
with a cups version as shipped in a Debian suite.
Cheers, OdyX
