I am fine with that in general. I'd have reduced the severity myself but 
I wanted to wait until at least one of the cups maintainers showed up 
AND for user reports that changing the driver to some generic PS driver 
does indeed fix the issue (sort of) for them as well.
So let's see what the maintainers have to say about this issue... if 
they feel like responding eventually. ;)
