Try Using CUPS's web interface instead
Point your browser to http://localhost:631/, which should present you with CUPS administration interface. I'd just done that on my dad's Powerbook. I haven't tried adding a new printer, but the printer (HP LaserJet 1200 connected to Airport base station) I had added earlier using Print Center is there.
Maybe this would work around the problem you're having.
Edit: Oh! It also looks like the PostScript was not rasterized. You should check the content of the HL-1440 PPD and see which filter is it using. Specifically, look for the lines:
\n*cupsFilter:\t"application/vnd.cups-postscript 0 foomatic-rip"\n*%pprRIP: foomatic-rip other\n
Also, see if foomatic-rip is found in cupsd's PATH.
Edit 2: [link|http://www.linuxprinting.org/kpfeifle/LinuxKongress2002/Tutorial/VII.cups-help/VII.cups-help.html#tell|Here] is a troubleshooting guide which should help track down the problem.
