I just removed the pstoraster symlink again that I added manually, then rebuilt cups.
A simple "lpr /etc/hosts" does not work then anymore and I can find this in the cups/error_log:

E [02/Nov/2011:20:12:52 +0100] Unable to execute /usr/libexec/cups/filter/pstoraster: No such file or directory
E [02/Nov/2011:20:12:52 +0100] [Job 32] Unable to start filter "pstoraster" - No such file or directory.
E [02/Nov/2011:20:12:52 +0100] [Job 32] Stopping job because the scheduler could not execute a filter.

Also, rebuilding hplip does not fix it.
