Well.  Everything looks good except for the printing part :-)
The queues are set up and enabled.  Your print jobs get sent.  They
just don't finish.

The one line there I don't like is 'End of file inside dictionary'
I don't know what that's referring to but it doesn't seem right.  A
quick google isn't illuminating either.

Since we're simply sending some plain text, it should be pretty
straight forward.

Since I don't know exactly what the problem is, I can only give you a
list of things I'd try if it were me.

1) Have you tried re-setting up the printers since you upgraded?  I'd
try that next if you haven't already.
2) Try setting up those printers with a different driver - if they
understand Postscript then use a generic postscript driver, or if they
do PCL use a PCL driver.  It won't get you all the features (duplex,
stapling, whatever) but it could at least get you hard copy, and
confirm where the issue is.
3) Grab the PPD that Hardy used that was working and import it into
Intrepid and try it there.
4) post a bug on launchpad.
5) head on over to the forums at linuxprinting.org and ask for more help.

That's pretty much the order I'd try them in too - but I'd file a bug
on launchpad regardless of whether I got it fixed or not with all the
things I've tried.

If any/all of those steps sound good to you, and you'd like help with
them, just shout back what you need help with.
