I (any many others...) had the same problem: The printer did not accent
jobs.
This can be fixed in this way:
* create a link from /usr/lib/libcups.so to /usr/lib/libcups.so.2
* edit /etc/cups/cupsd.conf : remove the line "Listen /var/run/cups/cups.sock"
* restart CUPS
But then an empty page is printed. This can be fixed in this way:
# cp /usr/lib/cups/filter/pstops /usr/lib/cups/filter/pstops.dist
# cat > /usr/lib/cups/filter/pstops
============= New pstops ==============
#!/bin/bash
JOBID="$1"
USER="$2"
TITLE="$3"
COPIES="$4"
SPEC="$5"
FILE="$6"
TEMP=`mktemp /tmp/pstops.XXXXXXX` || exit 1
# we're reading from STDIN, store it into the temporary file
if test -z "$FILE" -o ! -f "$FILE" ; then
cat > "$TEMP"
else
cp "$FILE" "$TEMP"
fi
# remove offending commands
sed -i -e 's/\/DeferredMediaSelection true //' "$TEMP"
# execute the command
/usr/lib/cups/filter/pstops.dist "$JOBID" "$USER" "$TITLE" \
"$COPIES" "$SPEC" "$TEMP"
# removing temporary file
rm -f "$TEMP"
=======================================
Note that the location of your pstops may be different (this is for RHEL 5) and
the one in /usr/bin is NOT the one used by CUPS.

After doing that, printing works perfectly.
I have no idea who is responsibly for the bug. CUPS, Sun, the Ubuntu
package? But I know from others that the problem exists with the Ubuntu
JDK package as well as with the original Sun package.
Here is the discussion (but only in German):
