|Oops.  Sorry, using 10.2, worked fine in 10.0.

Most likely there is a diff in the ppd file you are using.
Compare the 10.0 version you are using with the one you have set up.

If you printer has a *.ppd file in its windows driver, extract it and put it under
/etc/cups/ppd. the *.ppd's are simple text configs, you can easily tune whatever
feature you'll like.
