Printing does not work in 8.04

[Milosz Derezynski]

Yes same for me, on the Live CD the printer was basically immediately
usable.

I've been running this system as Gutsy before, and updated to Hardy in a
very early phase (4 Months before the release i think), could some gradual
updates caused a misconfiguration of the system? If yes, what in particular
could i check for? (I've already tried uninstalling everything cups,
manually deleting all directories belonging to it and then reinstalling, to
no avail.)
