This bug was fixed in the package foomatic-filters - 4.0.3-0ubuntu3
---------------
foomatic-filters (4.0.3-0ubuntu3) lucid; urgency=low
* debian/patches/10_foomatic-rip-use-poppler-pdftops-with-cups.patch:
CUPS manipulates $PATH when calling filters and this makes foomatic-rip
calling CUPS' pdftops instead of Poppler's pdftops. This fails and so
always the awkward Ghostscript/pswrite fallback is used, producing
huge temporary PostScript files which the following process (driver
or PostScript printer) renders very slowly or does not render at all
due to excessive memory usage (LP: #463059).
