That version of foomatic is no longer in portage but you have it
installed and it DEPENDS on something that is also not in portage.
Apparently, you ran emerge --sync then this happened. It does happen
sometimes. So: emerge foomatic first, then foomatic-db-ppds to get the
latest that is in portage.

That might not work due to DEPENDs order, in which case you must unmerge
all foomatic packages and remerge them from scratch. This is a bit
drastic with updates and blockers and isn't normally necessary. But
sometimes it is, this looks like one of those times.
