cups fails to print on OfficeJet G55 via hpoj (usb)

Hello!
I am running a gentoo with a 2.6.8 kernel. My printer is a HP OfficeJet G55
I installed the following packages:
libusb 0.1.7-r1
cups 1.1.20-r5
hpoj 0.91-r3
foomatic 3.0.2
hpijs 1.5
ghostscript -7.07.1-r7
Everything compiled well (once I found out that hpoj only compiles if libusb
is downgraded from 0.1.8 to 0.1.7-r1)
I installed the usb printer following the hpoj documentation with ptal-init
setup and ptal-init start.
I can print directly by using:
ptal-connect HP-OfficeJet_G55 -print (.......pipe textfile or
whatever.......)
I created a foomatic ppd file using the following command:
foomatic-configure -s cups -p HP-OfficeJet_G55 -c
ptal:/mlc:usb:OfficeJet_G55 -n MyPrintQueue -d hpijs
When I connect to the webinterface I can see the printer, I can configure it
to take A4 instead of Letter (Should prove that it reads the ppd, shouldn't
it?)
BUT I can't print a testpage.
Strangely the Job just dies. If I go to the Show Completed Jobs I can see
that they were "aborted".
Here' my error_log from cups:
