Bug Description
Binary package hint: cupsys
Now and again cups seems to go into a spinloop (massively filling log files) with the error "Too many open files".
Maybe related to cups bug #194368 which has recently been fixed (just a new package needed?)

Printers are HP Laserjet 1200 and HP Deskjet 895cxi, both connected via USB.

Please fix this, as printing is really essential for a desktop-distri and this is a real show-stopper.
