Hi,

I just suffered this...

I disagree with "Your assumption that the issue has something to do with
ecryptfs is incorrect. The real issue is with file permissions. If your
home directory doesn't have 0751 or more permissive rights (Ubuntu
defaults are 0755), printing will fail" .

The solution I found was to include in /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.cups the
following lines in the /usr/lib/cups/backend/cups-pdf section:

  @{HOME}/.Private/ rw,
  @{HOME}/.Private/* rw,
  @{HOME}/.Private/** rw,

Because the real problem shown in syslog was that apparmor prevented
cups to write inside $HOME/.Private  .


Regards,

Javier
