I managed to fix this problem. Follow the normal installation steps, but instead of root-nautilus'ing and changing the properties of the cups-pdf file, simply execute the following line of code in a terminal:
“sudo chmod +s /usr/lib/cups/backend/cups-pdf” -- The cups-pdf printer package no longer works properly with edgy or one of the other packages that have been upgraded. https://launchpad.net/bugs/60952 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
