As far as I can tell, this is the same issue as bug #10916, so I'm closing it
as a duplicate.

If cupsd is not running, attempts to raise a print dialog cause the app to
throw exceptions and eventually crash.

This seems to be related to a more general problem of the printing system not
working correctly when there is no PPD available.  I think there needs to be a
generic PPD, either a file or a dictionary that's produced in code, to handle
situation like this.
