Pete McCormick figured out where the problem lies. In the function
cups_request_ppd_cb in modules/printbackends/cups/gtkprintbackendcups.c,
there's a check for a PPD file and if the check fails, gtk assumes there's an
error somewhere and flags the printer as unavailable.

In my case, doing "touch /etc/cups/ppd/lp_over_ssh.ppd" is enough to fix the
problem. Thanks, Pete!

I'm not sure if this bug should be kept open or closed as NOTABUG. How normal
is it for a printer not to have a PPD file?

We recently fixed printing to raw queues (ie without ppd), so I think this
should work with current svn. Please reopen if it doesn't.

In my case "touch /etc/cups/ppd/Queue.ppd" solved the problem
