OK, after following those instructions I tried to print a file. This is
the beginning of the file that was created:

%!PS-Adobe-3.0
%%Creator: GPL Ghostscript 902 (ps2write)
%%LanguageLevel: 2
%%CreationDate: D:20111013055027-04'00'
%%For: (gerard)
%%Title: (claws-mail job #8)
%RBINumCopies: 1
%%Pages: (atend)
%%BoundingBox: (atend)
%%EndComments
%%BeginProlog

This is the pertinent information from CUPS:

Driver:	Generic PostScript Printer (color, 2-sided printing)
Connection:	file:///usr/home/gerard/tmp/ps-test
Defaults:	job-sheets=none, none media=na_letter_8.5x11in sides=one-sided

I know that this might seem strange; however, I do remember this
working correctly under "CUPS 1.48". I recently updated to the 1.50
version (FreeBSD) and ever since then this problem has arisen.
