Run the following to fix this:

#!/bin/sh
gnome-font-install --system --scan --no-copy \
        --afm-path=/usr/share/fonts/afms \
        --pfb-path=/usr/share/fonts/pfbs \
        --pfb-assignment=ghostscript,/usr/share/ghostscript/fonts \
        --afm-assignment=ghostscript,/usr/share/ghostscript/fonts \
        --pfb-assignment=ghostscript,/usr/share/fonts/default/Type1 \
        --afm-assignment=ghostscript,/usr/share/fonts/default/Type1 \
        /usr/share/fonts/ >/dev/null 2>&1

This should have been done when the gnome-print RPM was installed, but for
some reason it didn't properly execute.
