This was never a problem until 7.3. The Windows machine has locally the 'HP 6P Enhanced' drivers from hp.com installed.
When I was fiddling around with samba printer sharing, I had tremendous problems until I let the win-machines print through the 'raw' device created with apsfilter. It sends through the spool file directly to the printer without trying to interpret it. The output you give looks very much like some sort of printer control language, so my guess would be that apsfilter interprets it as ascii and escapes it to the printer. The raw device wouldn't do that, if my guess is correct. //Anders
