This is an upgrade issue caused by activating all CUPS backends during feisty 
development, on a clean feisty installation this will not happen anymore.
A better way to activate the missing backends is by using this command:
$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure cupsys

cupsys (1.2.8-0ubuntu8) feisty; urgency=low

  * debian/cupsys.postinst: Clean up the mess which cupsys_1.2.8-0ubuntu3 and
    later caused by activating all the CUPS backends (closes: LP#92042).

cupsys (1.2.8-0ubuntu7) feisty; urgency=low

  * debian/cupsys.postinst: Sync /usr/lib/cups/backend always with the
    debconf settingsm, as otherwise sooner or later the backend directory
    will be empty (closes: LP#92042).
