Take a look at
/opt/maemo/usr/lib/cups
Is the backend folder present?
Then look at
/usr/lib
There should be a symlink cups to /opt/maemo/usr/lib/cups.

The instructions on this thread are unfortunately too vague and diffused for me. Iīm sure there is good info on your garage page, but itīs locked from other people accessing it, even with a general garage login.
This is a awesome effort mase. In this shape though itīs not very usable for others that arenīt too l33t.

It doesn't look much like that, no.
/usr/lib/cups is a directory (not a link) containing a filters subdirectory and nothing else, and I have no /opt/maemo/usr/lib/cups directory.
Anything else you need to know?
I'm going to try moving the dir and setting up the link, just for the hell of it.

Please purge all cups and ghostscript packages, also cups-pdf.
Then also remove /usr/lib/cups and /usr/share/cups.
Did you try the non-optified packages first?
If yes, I think the symlinks cannot be created, because
a directory with this name already exist.
Is there anybody, where it works?

purged cups-common
moved /usr/lib/cups to /opt/maemo/usr/lib/cups
put a link in /usr/lib to /opt/maemo/usr/lib/cup
apt-get install cups
All is well. As I say, I think something else is putting /usr/lib/cups/filters in place, so when cups gets installed the link creation must fail. Or something, just a guess
--EDIT-- of course whilst I've been playing around with this I've figured out that the manufacturer's driver for my printer comes with some nice x86 binaries, so it's never going to work on the two arm devices I'm trying to get printing... damn them!
