Thank you for the tests.

This means that the odd resolution (4800x1200 dpi) which got put into
the "Normal" setting of the "cupsPrintQuality" option breaks it (as I
assumed yesterday).

You should be able to work around this if the print dialog of the
application offers a "Print Quality" option where you can set "Draft" or
"High".

I have already posted a upstream bug report on CUPS:

https://github.com/apple/cups/issues/5091
The driverless PPD generator chooses resolutions for cupsPrintQuality settings 
badly

Unfortunately, Mike Sweet, the author of CUPS, is currently on vacation,
so it can take some time until he will read this bug report.

Note that the PPD generator in cups-filters is a near 100% copy of the
one of CUPS. I will look into fixing it there and then proposing a patch
to CUPS.
