The pstops.c source code at the same site is based on cups 1.1.19; for the
1.3.5 version, please drop me an e-mail to
h dot blischke at acm dot org,
if you are interested.

In my case, I found that removing the Ubuntu CUPS package and
installing CUPS directly from source fixed the problem. I can now
successfully print banner pages on paper drawn from a different tray
than the rest of the job. My banner page Postscript file contains
the following which works for my HP LaserJet printers:<br>
<blockquote>%%BeginSetup<br>
%%IncludeFeature: *MediaType Color<br>
%%IncludeFeature: *Duplex None<br>
%%EndSetup<br>
</blockquote>
I think a very reasonable feature to add to CUPS would be to allow
job options to be configured separately for the job sheets from
those used to print the job itself.<br>
