There may be another work around:

Open the file:

/etc/cups/ppd/{nameofdriverfile}.ppd

with a root-permissioned text editor. About line number 70, in the
section named "Basic Device Capabilities", find the line that reads:

*LanguageLevel: "3"

and change the "3" to "2". Save and restart CUPS:

sudo /etc/init.d/cups restart

and test. This work-around mitigates the problem on both Intrepid and
Jaunty 64-bit installations.
