So then the filter chain or GhostScript seem not to cause the problem.
There is perhaps a problem with the backend or the printer.
Can you redirect your print queue into a file?
Set "FileDevice Yes" in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf and restart CUPS. Then do
lpadmin -p <your queue> -E -v file:/tmp/printout
to switch to file output. Print into this queue. Do you still get errors
in error_log? Does the queue stay enabled? When the job disappears from
the output of "lpstat -o", does /tmp/printout have a reasonable size?
Can you actually print /tmp/printout by doing
cat /tmp/printout > /dev/lp0
or
cat /tmp/printout > /dev/usb/lp0
