Upon further inspection, it seems some backend programs or scripts are unable to find the gs-esp binary. I'm not sure under which package to file this bug report, as the architecture of the printing system eludes me somewhat.

This bug seems foomatic-filters's rather than cupsys's.
Temporary solution is replacing the gspath value in /etc/foomatic/filter.conf
with 'gs' by using 'dpkg-reconfigure foomatic-filters' or an editor directly.
