Hi,

from what I can see from the logfile, when printing as non-root GS returns
the error code 256 - this usually means that the source file cannot be
read. Please check whether the directory /var/spool/cups-pdf/SPOOL is
readable for the group lpadmin. One thing you can try is removing the
entire directory /var/spool/cups-pdf ... CUPS-PDF will re-create the tree
with suitable permissions.
