Sorry for the late interrupt. But thats the problem.

Then any filter on the CUPS server is using periods "," instead of
dots "." for separating float numbers: 10,4 instead of 10.4. This
causes problem when any such number is read in the PostScript
interpreter, eg. on the printer. A more or less helpful feature of
localization in the glibc.

If you're running SUSE Linux 10.2 on your client, I recommend to
install latest update files of cups. The appropriate patch has been
removed for quiet some time (several months). Simply use the "Online
Update" in the adminstration interface YaST: in "Software" click on
"Online Update" (usually first entry).

Regards,
	Klaus.
