[cups.general] no banner with generic text-only printer

I'm printing to a Tally T6215 printer with the generic text-only
print driver and with the standard banner option selected; although,
a banner never appears.  I need the banner to appear along with
the print job.

I'm using a basic lp command with no options aside from the destination
printer.

Here's a wee bit of info:


[root at jobsub01 rock]# rpm -q cups
cups-1.1.17-13.3.32
[root at jobsub01 rock]# cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 3 (Taroon Update 6)
[root at jobsub01 rock]# lpoptions -p pr1test -l
SendFF/SendFF: True *False
PageSize/Media Size: *Letter
PageRegion/PageRegion: Letter
[root at jobsub01 rock]# cat /etc/cups/lpoptions
Default pr1


Help please.
