Just to make sure: Did you close and restart iceweasel after creating
the configuration file?
You can test whether your iceweasel really opens the configuration file
if you install the "strace" package and do this:
strace -efile iceweasel 2>&1 | grep gtkrc
(Be prepared for a longer startup time and a general sluggishness of the
user interface if you run iceweasel like that.)

If I remember the discussion in July correctly then we did not find a
way; that was quite frustrating for the lpr(ng) users until Jan Willem
Stumpel posted the solution via gtkrc. You should maybe read the entire
thread yourself; I use CUPS and was not affected by the problem, so I
did not pay attention to every detail.
