Public bug reported:

Since upgraded from Precise to Quantal Alpha3, and now Beta1 with all
updates applied, I could not print anymore.

CUPS logged things like :

D [13/Sep/2012:19:29:30 +0200] [Job 66] Gutenprint: using PPD file 
/etc/cups/ppd/Stylus-CX3600.ppd

PPD version (5.2.8-pre1) is not compatible with Gutenprint 5.2.9.", current 
level=ERROR
D [13/Sep/2012:19:29:30 +0200] [Job 66] Gutenprint: If you have upgraded your 
version of Gutenprint
D [13/Sep/2012:19:29:30 +0200] [Job 66] Gutenprint: recently, you must 
reinstall all printer queues.
D [13/Sep/2012:19:29:30 +0200] [Job 66] Gutenprint: If the previous installed 
version of Gutenprint
D [13/Sep/2012:19:29:30 +0200] [Job 66] Gutenprint: was 5.0.0 or higher, you 
can use the `cups-genppdupdate.5.2'

Actually, I could solve the issue the following way :

root@tethys:~# cups-genppdupdate 
Updated /etc/cups/ppd/Stylus-CX3600.ppd using 
gutenprint.5.2://escp2-cx3600/expert
Updated 1 PPD file.  Restart cupsd for the changes to take effect.

root@tethys:~# restart cups
cups start/running, process 18915

Once done, it prints, but I assume users aren't expected to do this ;-)
