Hi ! Like Eric says, it's a problem in the AppArmor configuration. His workaround works well but it remove the protection over cups-pdf. Like we see in the dmesg posted by marcobra it looks like a capabilities problem for /usr/lib/cups/backend/cups-pdf :
--- [89144.961555] type=1503 audit(1226146931.033:19): operation="capable" name="dac_read_search" pid=13513 profile="/usr/lib/cups/backend/cups-pdf" [89168.118889] type=1503 audit(1226146954.189:20): operation="capable" name="dac_override" pid=13725 profile="/usr/lib/cups/backend/cups-pdf" --- If you don't want disable protection of cups-pdf in AppArmor, don't use the flags=(complain). Go to the /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.cupsd and in the /usr/lib/cups/backend/cups-pdf section search for this lines : capability chown, capability fowner, capability fsetid, capability setgid, capability setuid, after this lines you just need to add this two new lines : capability dac_override, capability dac_read_search, It would be suficient. You juste need a /etc/init.d/apparmor reload and cups-pdf would works well !!
