The debian cups maintainer has build new packages (for testing) with 
1.2.2 changes: http://kmuto.jp/debian/cups
I've tested it also with latest cups6.* drivers from cups.org.

The problem isn't solved! with the latest cups version.

If I can help (as non-developer/expert) please tell me what you need!
