 I think you should have to install cups-pdf, and only that.  I agree
 that -- functionally speaking -- the option to print to a PDF shouldn't
 be displayed if the necessary bits are not installed.

 However, I think there are specific printing related bugs in epiphany
 which are not present in other GNOME apps; it might make sense to look
 at other apps than epi to do your tests (e.g. gedit), and then revisit
 epiphany with the results of your tests.
