First, the finishings attribute takes numbers (...)

Second, the finishings attribute is currently not implemented by CUPS,
mainly because there is little (if any) standardization for the
various finishing features in PPD files.

CUPS 1.3 will be adding a new attribute to support mapping of
finishing values to PPD options, with fallbacks to common options
and choices we've seen.

For now, use "-o StapleWhen=EndOfSet" to ask for stapling on that
printer.
