Hi Dean,

CUPS uses a PPD file that describes the printer's postscript version.
Perhaps that was somehow altered or changed. My next move would be to
check the ppd version installed in CUPS - http://localhost:631 and
search online to see if the manufacturer has a ppd that could be used
instead.

Sincerely,
Kailash
