For both the printers we have tried, no match. The one match I do find for another printer is:
pp05.ppd:*%*cupsFilter: "application/vnd.cups-postscript 0 foomatic-rip"
and I think that this might be my mistake, as I've not (knowingly!) installed foomatic-rip.
I shall experiment with a minimally configured fresh installation of 1.2.7 to see if I can find circumstances in which this problem happens.
