After all it could be a path problem. If you compile gs-esp yourself it 
lies under /usr/local/... together with the fonts. You can test it with 
'gs -h'
CUPS would not look for there.
Increase the debug level in /etc/cups/cups.conf, delete 
/var/log/cups/error_log and print again. Post the file
here.
