you could add <cupsomatic-ppd>. under ' sarge'  you get in that case 
installed div.  foomatic-files.  except  cupsys-pt (printing in c)  is 
that the only difference with my installed cups-system. (hugo vanwoerkom 
told you the other things of which some passed my mind too.

for me this combination prints mozilla-files/messages fine.

please ler me whether this works, or not.
