Solved: I did:

 # cupsfilter -p /etc/cups/ppd/Samsung_ML-191x_252x_Series.ppd -m printer/foo -e /etc/nsswitch.conf > out.dat 2>log

and the log file complained the lack of libcupsimage.so.2:

cupsfilter: error while loading shared libraries: libcupsimage.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Then I `aptitude installed' libcupsimage2...  And voilà: printer would work.

Thank you, Brian  ;-)  Thank you all.
