This sounds like it might be a known bug in the 'paps' filter:

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=316461

One work-around might be to alter /etc/cups/mime.convs so that this
line:

text/plain       application/postscript  33      texttopaps

reads:

text/plain       application/postscript  33      texttops

(i.e. change 'texttopaps' to 'texttops').

Does that work around the problem you are seeing?
