I have printed this file on an HP LaserJet P3005 without filtering, 
using the command

nc -w1 192.168.2.115 9100 < port9100_1.4.4-2.dump

The printer prompted for inserting A4 paper and as I have A4 paper in 
the tray, it seems that in this job manual paper feed is set. After 
confirming the prompt pressing the OK button on the printer twice the 
job got printed.

I have looked into the file, most probably either the

[{
%%BeginFeature: *RIPaperPolicy PromptUser

   <</DeferredMediaSelection true>> setpagedevice
   <</Policies << /PageSize 2 /MediaType 2 >> >> setpagedevice
%%EndFeature
} stopped cleartomark

or the

[{
%%BeginFeature: *InputSlot 1Tray
<</MediaPosition 1>> setpagedevice
%%EndFeature
} stopped cleartomark

caused the printer to switch to manual feed.
