"Driver:         Generic PCL Laser Printer (grayscale)“

I suppose you selected this from the driver list shown in the web interface.
That means, the printer has been configured with a PPD containing a statement like

*cupsFilter: "application/vnd.cups-raw 0 -"

(or the minus sign replaced by some vendor specific filter name, probably an absolute path).
Perhaps you could post this PPD (it should be
/etc/cups/ppd/FALSCH.ppd
if FALSCH is the name of the printer.

Note that this list only accepts text files as attachments – you need to append an extension 
.txt
to the name of the PPD therefore.
(or send me the PPD off the list).
