CUPS is also including now a more strict PPD parsing and testing
routine. To rule out the possibility of your PPD not being Adobe-spec
compliant, run

    "cupstestppd /path/to/PPD"
    "cupstestppd -v /path/to/PPD"
    "cupstestppd -vv /path/to/PPD"

You can also test it online at http://www.cups.org/testppd.php

Cheers,
Kurt
