CUPS Remote Printer

I am working on moving away from AIX print subsystem to CUPS subsystem.

I have a problem. If I setup a remote print queue on the AIX subsystem the enq command that gets spawned on the remote server is:
/usr/bin/enq -Ptest_prn -r -troot at aixdev1 -Zroot at aixdev1 -N1 -Ttest_prn /var/spool/lpd/dfA466aixdev1.1247070131.344260

However, when I setup the remote printer on CUPS, an additional flag is getting embedded which is causing much grief. How shall I get rid of this flag.

/usr/bin/enq -Ptest_prn -r -troot at aixdev1 -Zroot at aixdev1 -N1 -Ttest_prn -o-fl /var/spool/lpd/dfA466aixdev1.1247070131.344260

The command being executed on the cups server is:
/usr/bin/lpr.cups -P test_prn -l /tmp/TestFile
