I am not very much familiar with that printer. Is that one of the
Zenographics-based printers?

Which PPD did you install? What is the result of the command

  "grep cupsFilter /etc/cups/ppd/*.ppd"

? I suspect you are using a "Foomatic"-driver. For Foomatic-related
support questions, the forums at Linuxprinting.org

  http://linuxprinting.org/forums.cgi

is a better address; CUPS.org is not involved in the development of
Foomatic-based stuff.
