Public bug reported:
man pdfops
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
...
-cfg config-file
Read config-file in place of ~/.xpdfrc or the system-wide config
file.
...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
but
pdftops -cfg /etc/cups/pdftops.conf ch09.pdf xx.ps
will bring me to the usage.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
pdftops version 3.00
Copyright 1996-2004 Glyph & Cog, LLC
Usage: pdftops [options] <PDF-file> [<PS-file>]
-f <int> : first page to print
...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
and there is no -cfg option.
and this will cause cups print failed to work.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
which in effect is caused by 'cupsys: /usr/lib/cups/filter/pdftops' which
assume pdftops accept -cfg option.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
...
$cmdopt = "-cfg " . $ENV{CUPS_SERVERROOT} . "/pdftops.conf"; # This cannot be
changed
...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
as a workaround, comment out the line in /usr/lib/cups/filter/pdftops
