I get the following (was probably the same before):

due to not standard-conforming choice names in the "Resolution" option.
I do not know whether it breaks printing, as I do not have an
appropriate test printer here, but it can be fixed by changing the short
name of the "Resolution" option to something else than "Resolution" or
by renaming the choices.
This has been around for as long as we've had a CUPS driver. My
version of cupstestppd doesn't flag this, even in strict mode.
It's not clear to me how best to fix it (or whether to fix it at
all). Some printers offer multiple choices for a given resolution,
although that problem's nowhere near as bad as it was in 4.2. It's
not clear to me that we can fix it in any kind of compatible way. Any
ideas?
