[cups] cups, own interface and gziptoany

Hallo,

I have configured a printer in cups. This printer uses via an interface
script a self written driver (which is an gawk script).

The interface contains:
/etc/cups/filters/ownfilter < $6

Don't know why, but sometimes cups starts a filter "gziptoany" before
the filter is started. But now, $6 is empty and the interface script
can't work.

But why is cups useing gziptoany here? The input is only plain ascii text.

cups is 1.5.4

Any hints?

Regards

Daniel
