I've tried to downgrade bash on 3.1_p17 and I've tried to upgrade to foomatic-db-4.0.20100913, net-print/foomatic-db-engine-4.0.5, net-print/foomatic-filters-4.0.5 and that does not fixed the issue. I don't have more time to investigate this issue at the moment but still I'd like to report it. Is it possible this is cups-1.4.x related?
Comment 1 Peter Volkov (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-09-13 11:04:54 UTC 
ok, I've installed cups-1.3 and all relevant foomatic packages and printing now works. This is definitely regression.

Also note, that cups testing pages was printed successfully with cups-1.4, while real printing from evince failed...
Comment 2 Maciej Mrozowski gentoo-dev 2010-09-13 11:26:32 UTC 
Try net-print/splix for Samsung printers instead.
However, splix is affected by bug 292543.

Thank you  Maciej, I'll try. Ah the same time I've reported this issue upstream.

 Peter, has anything crept up from upstream or are the problems resolved?
