That bug is before my time.  HAL has come in to fix what you have been
experiencing and *should* work out of the box for most printers.  Why it
doesn't work for you even though it sets the queue up for you is all
together different.  Please file a new bug or reassign the current bug
to the hal-cups-config module with the precise steps you take to print a
document. Thanks.
