Hello Karl,
Thank you for submitting this bug and reporting a problem with cups.  You made 
this bug report some time ago and Ubuntu and cups have been updated since then. 

Could you confirm that this is no longer a problem and that we can close the 
ticket? 
If it is still a problem, are you still interested in finding a solution to 
this bug? 
If you are, could you let us know and, in the current version, could you run 
the following (only once):
apport-collect 1452193
and upload the updated logs and and any other logs that are relevant for this 
particular issue. 

Thank you again for helping make Ubuntu and cups better. 
G

Title:
  Backends can't look at FINAL_CONTENT_TYPE to determine MIME type of
  job

Status in cups package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  We have a custom cups backend ("thinlocal") that looks at
  FINAL_CONTENT_TYPE to find out whether the submitted job is
  application/pdf and if so, take special actions. The PPD for this
  backend accepts PDF:s directly through this line:

  *cupsFilter: "application/pdf 0 -"

  However, FINAL_CONTENT_TYPE is always set to printer/thinlocal, so the
  backend can't possibly determine the input format by looking at the
  FINAL_CONTENT_TYPE.

  This is broken with (at least):
   - Ubuntu 14.04 (cups 1.7.2),
   - Ubuntu 14.10 (cups 1.7.5)
   - Ubuntu 15.04 (cups 2.0.2).
