Somewhere in your cups config it thinks it is supposed to use
'foomatic-rip' as a filter on jobs sent to that printer.  Look in
/etc/cups/mime.convs and /etc/cups/ppd/Laser3.ppd.  In the latter
file look for a line starting with "*cupsFilter:".  Remove all
references to foomatic-rip.  If the reference occurs in the PPD file
then you may want to (after backing up) remove the PPD and
re-"install" the printer queue without using the foomatic
drivers/filters.
