I'll try a test print tomorrow, but I would suspect that it should really be 
Generic/Postscript. Going by the above comments it would seem that it picks 
Generic/TextOnly when it doesn't know anything about the printer.
I guess we could maybe have our specific printer whitelisted, but there are 
presumably lots of other printers out there which wouldn't be helped by this.

I'm no printer expert, but I would think it would be reasonable to set
any kind of network printer to default to Generic/Postscript - I find it
hard to believe that there are any networked printers today that don't
accept postscript.
