cups 1.7.1-2 is the latest in testing. It might be useful if you could
recollect whether printing worked before this update.

Anyway, let's what we can get get from your doing this:

   1. Delete (or move) /var/log/cups/error_log.

   2. Enable debug logging with

  	   cupsctl --debug-logging
 
   3. Restart cups with

	   service cups restart

   4. Print a text file with

	   lp -d queue_name file_name or
	   lp file_name (if the printer is the default printer)

   5. Carry out first three steps.

   6. Print the same file from emacs.

   7. Say whether printing takes place and attach the error_logs to the mail
      you send to this bug.

You have two printers. Are both affected?

Regards,

Brian.
