IPP printers don't work with CUPS after update?

Hi All,

I have a cups/ipp printer running on a CentOS machine.  Before I updated 
from Hoary to Dapper, this printer worked fine, and in fact, from my 
other Windows and Linux boxes, it still works fine.  However, since the 
update to Dapper, my main machine does not print the jobs, instead it 
prints something like this:

-12345X at PJL
@PJL SET MANUALFEED=OFF
@PJL SET ECONOMODE=OFF
@PJL SET COPIES=1
@PJL SET RET=MEDIUM
@PJL SET DENSITY=3

and a line of garbage.  This happens with the printers which were 
defined prior to the update, and with any new printers that I create.

Obviously, the printout is some of the PJL job language, but apparently 
Dapper's Cups is not telling the other machine this properly.

Any suggestions?

-Scott
