Hello again..

For me i found the solution...
I need to say, that i have enabled a special PPA where i get umtsmon.
In the PPA (https://launchpad.net/~dnjl/+archive/ppa) there is also a update for cups:
1.4.1-5ubuntu2.4.1~dnjl2~karmic0

If this package is installed, printing stops with "/usr/lib/cups/filter/pdftopdf failed".

So i tried to install the original one from kubuntu and downloaded/installed it from:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/cups
downloaded the amd64 one.

After installing the original package from karmic-security repo, printing comes back :)

No this version of cups is installed and works:
apt-cache policy cups
cups:
  Installed: 1.4.1-5ubuntu2.4
  Candidate: 1.4.1-5ubuntu2.4
  Version table:
 *** 1.4.1-5ubuntu2.4 0
        500 http://ch.archive.ubuntu.com karmic-updates/main Packages
        500 http://security.ubuntu.com karmic-security/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     1.4.1-5ubuntu2 0
        500 http://ch.archive.ubuntu.com karmic/main Packages

I will contact the maintainer of the above PPA (dnjl) so he is informed.

Thanks for work

kind regards
