As the fixes done so far on CUPS' IPP backend did not solve this problem we should avoid using the IPP backend whenever possible. IPP implementations in printers are too often not conforming well with the standards. Therefore I have made a change on system-config-printer now to default to the AppSocket/JetDirect protocol with highest priority and lets IPP being used only if no other protocol is supported by the printer. Note that this is a workaround and not really a fix.
