I seem to remember that the cupsys-bsd package was required to get
printing in OOo to work with cups. Does dpkg -l cupsys-bsd show it
installed? 

Once everything was installed properly, printing in OOo just worked for
me. No configuration required, other than selecting the printer I wanted
to use when the print dialog box came up.
